Just wanted to say a big thank-you to Tim aka tim the toolman for his generous donation of a RBTA It's still pretty small around 2" but hopefully when it gets bigger the clowns will notice it and host in it.

It's been awhile since I gave an update. Unfortunately one of the clowns (the one named tang) was majorly picking on the other clown (nemo) so Tang went back to Red coral, as I did not want to come back to work after the weekend and find nemo dead. On the bright side the RBTA finally picked a spot to settle into and Nemo is hosting in it I got pic's of him close to it, but every time he's in it as soon as I get close to the tank he swims behind the anemone. I also added some coral (plan on picking up more from Dawn on Sunday) and I found out I can post pic's of children looking at the tank as long as you can not see any part of their face in the picture.

This one child from our centre is so sweet and was very interested in the tank. She "helped" me clean the glass and afterwards she moved a chair over to the tank and sat on it for a long time watching the fish

It is wonderful to see the update and to hear the enjoyment that the kids get out of it. Great job!

Thanks, I love seeing all the kids looking into and being excited about the tank. So many of them press their noses right up to it and just stare and smile, it's very cute to watch

Yes they are, definitely a vast improvement! Thanks again for helping out with them. I had one start to fall out of place (thankfully I noticed before any damage was done) so I duct taped them into place. So far the duct tape has been holding quite well

I'm also meeting up with Dawn aka noirsphynx and Jason aka subman today at AI around noon to pick up some coral they are generously donating
