Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Does it stay small? - mine have not grown very much during the year I have had it - seems to be a rather small species. Its around 10 cm now (around 4 inch) Always on the move, difficult to take good photos of it because when you pull the trigger - its on the other end of the aquarium

Sincerely Lasse
So far. When I got it it was about 2 inches and now it is a little less than 3.5 inches. I think I've had it about 18 months but I need to go back and verify that. My photo experience with it is just like yours. Gone by mid-click. I've seen several of your shots of your Blue Lip and I'm amazed. I rarely see mine that well even without the camera. It is constantly moving and loves to dart through caves and tunnels.

--edit--
I just checked I bought the Blue Lip on May 10, 2024 so roughly 17 months.

Here is a shot of it and a CBB the day after I bought it:

Also good morning.
Good morning Camden, not a lawyer but I did watch to Kill a Mockingbird, a Good few Men, Judge Judy and My Cousin Vinny. How can I help?
