Have us curious now. What little critter do you have planned?

noirsphynx · #2 10-06-2008, 08:45 PM

It's a secret until I know if I can get him or not

. I have all the LFS looking for one and so far I haven't heard back from any

I'm so very hopeful though. I have 6 months to find one and hopefully it won't blow too much of my budget.

Oh well......maybe I can tell......it's a Gumdrop Coral Croucher

I'm in love with the little cuties. Maybe someone out there knows where I can get one, even if I have to have him shipped here. If that happens then I'll post to see if there's any interest in a group order from wherever I can find him. So what does everyone think....cute or what?

I'm a little behind, no water in yet

but I will by tomorrow hopefully. Added a pic of the stand I built to the first post.

Sorry not to side track... but why do some people say black sand is bad again??

Drop a magnet in there...

No, just kidding, but I had some sand with black and dropped an algae magnet and whoosh !..

I don't know if its "bad" but when I ran black sand it looked great for the first few months and then it just seemed to loose it's affect and I couldn't keep it clean (pure black). I wouldn't use it again but that's just me.

I reeeeeaaaaally hope it doesn't! I just love the look of it. I suppose even if it does at least it's only in my 10g & not my 90g. That would be a PITA to change out.

I'm sure it will be fine, here's some pics of my back sand, same stuff you used.
