You guys are hilarious!!!

The tang didn't get switched around (hahahaha Leah!), but he has changed colors again/still!

Oh, and the funniest thing happened...my RBTA split lastnight! Stoked on that. Now I have two little nems. The bigger piece is doing really well, all tucked into a spot, and bubbled up. The smaller piece looks good, but is travelling around.

Here's the smaller one (that I will probably sell if anyone's interested):


And a very unfinished FTS with everything more or less randomly jammed in:

Oh but Tony, you have great things to trade!! I don't mind shipping if you don't.

Thanks for the comments everyone! I can't say the tank looks bad in the way everything is just tossed in including the rock, haha way too muh of it too, but it will look a lot better when things are organised better. Albeit, the large amount of rock makes it look fuller than it is. I was expecting it to look more bare than it does with only enough livestock to fill a 33, but it's not horribly bare by any means. I bet once I remove half the rock it will look more bare!!

Well everything looks great this morning too!

Except one small Cyphastrea frag that made the journey buried in the bucket of sand. That one is losing some flesh, so I'm not sure it will survive. It is quite small, so it's understandable that it could have been mixed up in the sand and not seen. I'm hoping enough of it will survive to stay alive.

The anemones have both taken up residence behind and under the rocks so they are getting ZERO direct light. Grrr... stupid nems. Oh well, once I get the rock scaping done they will have nowhere to hide!! Muahahahahaha!!!

The Perc has residence in the larger RBTA. He's happy. You should have seen the look of concern on his little clown face when his nem was first moved in there and all deflated. You could see him, "Come on buddy, get up!! What's wrong? Are you ok?" When the nems split the Perc abandoned post, and i think he was thinking "Ok seriously here buddy, you're messed up. This self-inflicted wounding is soooo not cool." Now he's all "Oh I'm so sorry I talked to you like that, you're still the awesomest, but I'm sooo not talking to that little spawn of yours over there. Pfff."

Ok maybe I've gone mad.

I'm enjoying the BB of this tank for right now. Yep...I've definitely gone mad. Ha!

I have a very large Bangaii Cardinal that I got off a reefer here in Saskatoon that is in a Rubbermaid right now with all the rock from my old tank. I think the big one is a female, and after looking at my remaining Banger I'm not entirely sure whether it is the female or the male. The silly thing stays hiding all the time though, so I can't get a good look. I'm scared to put the Bangers together! I gotta hunt through my old rock too and try to find the Emerald crabs...I forgot about them.

Yep nems is evil. Right now they don't have any sting left from being moved though. Hehehehehe.

Wow, I made a stupid mistake. When I got all my livestock I had about 40 lbs of my old liverock come too. Well I plopped that into a Rubbermaid bin I've had going for awhile where the giant Bangaii is (that I bought out here, not my original Bangaii). Stupid me never thought of the fact that the rock would probably cycle after being moved. I just went to feed the Bangaii and it's dead. I feel like an @$$ too because the guy I bought it off said it was his first sw fish that he got 2 years ago!! Oh man...stupid mistake.
