Did you ever get your skimmer issues resolved or get it dialed to where it will skim properly. I seem to be having the same issues with my vertex in-180, and its making me consider going with a different skimmer.

No not really, still tinkering with it.

So I almost added a new fish yesterday..

I saw this little guy at Big Als yesterday with no price tag on the tank. It's supposedly a Super Male Ember Blenny (I doubt that it will go Super). I'll be honest I have not seen one before so I could be wrong, but I would assume you'd need some females to help coax this guy into Super Male coloring. So I hung around for 20mins waiting for some service and finally got someone to stop and give me a hand. Asked how much he was.......

........ $250!

Needless to say I passed on it.... not because I think it's to expensive (although based on Liveaquaria, it is overpriced, LA sold one a Super Male in the Divers Den for $80US) but because I didn't have $250 on me... Ok, seriously, I'd maybe pay $120-150... $250 is a stretch!

Nice! I was looking for this guys for a year, but $250 I think is too much

Love those guys! But, um.. ya, $250 is a bit steep ! I'm sure someone will snatch up that beauty of a blenny though.

Was it bright Red?, I put in an order for one through someone else a while ago and it never came in - I think its pretty rare that they just show up in a fish order., that's if it is a Super Male - I wouldn't pay $250 though.
