I love it when I spend hours pondering a purchase. I then make the decision to take it home. Spending hours doing the acclimation thing. Putting it into the tank not to be seen again for 2 or 3 years and then out of nowhere that dam anemone is right out there stinging my favorite coral.

I keep a flashlight beside the tank at all times. A LED light. Love coming home when I was working afternoon shift, lights all out, and just spying on them. Peanut worms, chitons, crabs. All sorts of neat things come out in the dark

Great shots Christy.

Wouldn't be unreasonable if you had a small dish or a corner filled with sand.

lol nice find. Im wondering where you got your (2) melanurus wrasses... Ive been looking all over and have nothing.

Yeah I haven't ever seen them in stores except for my first one that was from someone taking their tank down and bringing all their livestock in to a store here in Nanaimo. The second one was from someone in Mission that was taking their tank down as well and I jumped on it as soon as I saw the post (heh what I won't do for a fish, good thing I was living in Van at the time, still a big drive). They're pretty dang awesome fish too, big copepod/worm hunters and great characters.
