Restocking List
 

Well I decided this time to try and keep my fish stocking on the more conservative side. If anyone sees anything out of place or order let me know thanks.

First additions: Diamond watchmen Goby and Royal Gramma
Second: 2 clowns most likely oce/percs
Third: Starcki Damsel
Fourth: Six line Wrasse(maybe a different wrasse but I do like six lines)

Well I jumped on the group order and got a nice 9 piece frag pack from Fragbox. The sorta first pieces I put back into my tank. I got a few frags from Wardog before the other frags showed up later that day.

All the frags loaded on the rack

Nice to see you back, Joe. Whatever didn't kill you, gonna make you stronger!

I got some LR and chaeto you can have if you wanna grab some.

Well my tank is coming along slowly. Here is a shot of my frag rack. Thanks to Fragbox, Warren, Walter and Peter for the frags.

Nice , looks good so far !
Glad to see it back up & running

Good to see you're still at it Joe :smile:

Fish Update:

I have had just 2 clown fish in my tank since i got it up and running again, so I went and got a few more. In went 5 Vanderbilt chromis and 1 falco hawkfish.

Day 1 - everyone alive lights out.
Day 2 - 4 chromis found 1 hawkfish. (1 chromis found being consumed by emerald and scarlet crabs)
Day 3 - 2 chromis found 1 hawkfish (1 more chromis being consumed by crabs can't find the other)
Day 4 - Who knows.....

That sucks

Yep. Not much I can do but hope the last 2 are fine and that the crabs enjoyed the sushi I served them.

Curious , where did you get fish ?

Purchased locally in Surrey. Originated from Vanuatu.

You mean Net Caught Marines Direct?

That would be the place.

Where's that?

Surrey.

It seems these chromis tend to die a lot. I tried to order some, but by the time we could arrange delivery, they were all dead.

Glad your back at it Joe, for what it's worth I've never had much luck with chromis either.

I guess if I look at it in a good way only having 2 chromis allows me to add more different fish.

Well there is nothing good about losing fish but buying new fish is always fun. So I had to go to BCIT to pickup my books for school and it just so happened that J&L was on the way home. I have been looking for a nice little tomini tang for a while now and lo and behold they had two of the little guys. Both were small but paid the extra $10 for the nicer looking one. I had been looking for a diamond goby as well but no luck with that. I did see some six spot sleepers though so one of those came home as well. A good trip from not so great a few days. Its water change day so will try to get some pictures up after cleaning.

I've had good luck with livestock from J&L.

Tried to snap a couple pictures with my phone but the light is just awful. Since I tried I will post them any way.

My hawkfish just chilling on the sand. Love the personality.

Couple shots of the Tomini. Its swims all over nibbling at everything already so hard to get a good picture.

Hawkfish are very cool with lots of personality my long nose comes right up and eats out of my hand along with my Starry Blenny.
see you tomorrow at town hall pub.

Looking pretty sweet Joe.
