Any pictures? ... Hmm Rose Anemone? I think it be too big for your tank.
loading pics later at night sorries.

even though it was a small rose BTA it was still bright red and in great condition...and only $40.

if they still have small ones later then im getting it. once i get a 46g or something around 30g+.


they only had 2 clownfishes left so i didnt have much of a choice...
one was big but very pale (should get brighter later?) the other one is dark orange but looks very skinny...hes not eating very much i feed then 3 different kinds of foods...the big one is eating everything.

i added some stress coat just to be safe but...
a couple of times they turn sideways and started twiching...it was getting freaked out...is this natural????

is this ich or something else?:eek:

btw the cleaner shrimp isnt doing much cleaning...it just hides in the back...

but he did many attempts to clean the bigger clownfish but he runs way..

what is that in the back bottom left of the tank? Hydrometer?
lol yeah its my hydrometer a lot of stuff is just building up on it...going to take it out and clean it later...but its pretty much useless cuz im getting a refractometer soon. very soon.

update i finally got my refractometer...turns out my dad knows it... his company uses stuff like that...wish i got one off him for free. =/

anyways i tuned it up and my SG turns out to be 1.030!!! omg that hydrometer is sooooo off. (im going to trust a refractometer.) but i'll take it to my LFS and see how accurate it really is.

i brought the SG down to 1.024 and see wats its going to be in the morning.

since one of my clownfish died my dad when back to the store and replaced it with a maroon clownfish...(its very red)

Ocellaris Clownfish and marron get along just fine right? the marron is bigger.
got both for $10.

not sure about the two differant clowns together though i do have a regular maroon paired up with a gold stripe maroon..... but as far as the backround my 30 gallon had a mirror backround and it didnt look good at all.... id go with black on the backround...... when i finally painted my backround on my 125 gallon youd be suprised how big of a differance it made

i'll probably repost this again when the new fourm is up and going.

my bulb. havent set it up yet...no socket.





Heres my 46g tank that im going to return on monday...unless some miracle happens...



The new guy...i hope this guy lives longer then the last...



Heres the 2 of them.



i got the shrimp in this shot.



full tank shot. i moved the rocks around a bit. the cave is really cool cuz the sand made a bigger tunnel when i move the rocks.




i got some chaetos ($5 for a huge bag!!!...well more like a quart...but theres like 2 bunches.) but theres these things in them...they look like dandelion spores...are they safe? i can take them out....



their really small so i couldnt get a better pic of them.
