Let's try this again. . .

I ordered 2 more pyramid butterflies. These arrived in great condition.

These are pretty cool--at night most of the white pyramid turns black.

Update

Lest you think nothing is happening in the tank, I will provide an update.

I managed to kill 2 additional fish this week, before I even got photos. I had them shipped, and most of the water leaked out of their bags. They were alive, but in horrible shape. Full refund from the vendor.

If they have the same fish in stock, I will reorder tomorrow.

DEPRESSING

Came home from church today, and all of my fish in quarantine were dead--4, including the two flame angels. Makes me want to cry.

Parasites.

Spotted

So my little shrimp finally decided to dig an entrance to his tunnel on the front of the rock where we can see him come out. Here is the goby and his shrimp buddy. Nice to know they are still alive. Have only seen them a couple times over the past few weeks.





More fish

I need to get a few more pictures, but here is one of my new fish, commonly known as a flame angel. I plan to have a pair of these, which can be a bit tricky. We will see how it goes.

Fish is in quarantine.

Newest Additions to the Tank II

My goby has been added to the main tank, and now has his pistol shrimp buddy. They hit it it right off, and now share a nice tunnel the shrimp has dug under one of the rocks. They don't venture out much yet, so it may be hard to get a photo. I got another cleaner shrimp, and now Pepe is carrying around a bunch of eggs. Isaac also spotted the mystery crab hiding in a hole in the rocks. We have heard the crab for 6 months now, but have only seen it once.

I have a new fish in quarantine--blackcap basslet. It actually appears much more purple than it looks in this photo.

Newest addition to the tank.

The fish store had this great looking starfish, and it has been there a while, so I bought it. I also got another shrimp and a couple more snails. I was going to order my pistol shrimp to pair up with my fish, but the weather was too cold for shipping this weekend. Maybe next Saturday.
