Hey Chad,

Nice meeting up with you today.

Everything looks great in my tank, all the zoo's opened and the lord has a home next to the other one I have.

The zoo's must be extra soft, my hermits are using them as carpet :)

I got it from Rob Top from Rockford (Traded a few zoo's for it).

I am going to buy some more off of him in the future (maybe a month) and offer it to anyone around here that wants it (So far Swampy and I have to get Dragonfish a freebie since he picked this one up for me). LMK and I will get a frag for you.

He had 2 other color morphs also. Gotta go find the pictures......

Just about the 6 month anniversary of my tank


Went to Sho Tank today and got another piece of Liverock hoping to find an aquascaping design I liked enough to keep me from changing it on a weekly basis. Thought I'd share a picture or 2 to show my progress, it's been about 6 months since I have had it up and going.

Tank on day 1, Should have mentioned to Premium Aquatics I had a nano :)

About 2 months ago:

What it looked like earlier today (Got rid of a boulder about 3 weeks ago)

And what it looks like after $18 worth of Live Rock, a tube of aqua mend and a few hours:

I owe a lot to my buddy Dragonfish for getting me hooked on this in the first place(plus the xenia and the runaway PPE), smketyr for the candycane and the hammer, Thorium for the Torch (Behind the hammer) and the candycane and Chad for the Acan Lord and zoo's. Everything looks great.

I just need a few more pieces, in the front right I want to make a "carport" looking section to shade the red blasto. Get a baseball sized piece to put where the blue candycane is now and have a flat shelf piece to go from that back to the rockwork. Confusing I know but it's my vision :)
That red blasto hates light and I took away his cave today.

Just a few random pictures

The Dragonfish PPE. On Friday he fragged 2 polyps of it and we used Loclite glue to glue them to some live rock rubble and put them in our tanks.
Saturday morning it was still there and fine. Saturday afternoon I go to see if it's open and it GONE, No ransom note, no "I hate you and am running away from home note", nothing. I am kicking myself for putting it in a high flow area so soon and after spending about a half hour looking I give up.
2 hours later I look in the tank and it's wide open on the sandbed right next to the purple torch.
After a rescue mission and half a bottle (o.k. that might be a lie) of glue here it is:

I think we should call it Dragonfishes Running PPE and sell it for $1000/polyp :)
Funniest thing, the same thing happened to Todd (Dragonfish) on the same day.


Just some zoo's and a candycane frag:

LOL I still can't believe yours ran too! I went to bed Friday night and it was happy as a clam. First thing Saturday I look and it's MIA! This is the part where I flip out. I must have been looking for two hours, then I have the presence of mind to look under the rock I glued it to and viola! I used normal crazy glue and its been holding fine since then.
