I'm still considering driving over to Ocean Floor later this afternoon for a couple of Peppermints and some Pithos.

Do it!!! And maybe a new fish? Or coral? Or two?

Nah. Too many corals. I have a 10 pack of Acros from SPS Tank I need to order still so I need to get stuff cleaned out. Although they occasionally have some interesting $10 Zoas...

If I bought fish it would be Khulis, Cories, or something else for the work tank but they'd have to find a safe place to live until Monday so that's not likely to happen. I keep hoping Petco out near work gets them in soon but so far no go.

I do have both Tim, didn’t think that I had anymore peppermint when I transferred the rock over to the new tank but, using a flashlight, I see at least two at a time after lights are out. I have 5 pithos in there as well.

I'm still considering setting something up to put a rock in, let Peppermints have at it and move it back to the display. I looked into doing that with Berghia but the problem is that I need to get most of the bristleworms and amphipods off the rock before putting it in the tank. I don't care about losing a Peppermint, in fact I'd be fine feeding them to a trigger once their job is done.

I'm doing okay raising Berghia although it takes time. Getting them established in the display is proving to be an issue now that I have the Pintail Wrasse and the Yellow Wrasse has grown considerably. I've introduced twelve over the last month and will probably put five or six more in tonight or tomorrow.

Yeah. I'll probably get 3 Pithos - 1 for the sump and 2 for the DT.

Peppermint shrimp would depend on price. 2 weeks ago they were $4.99 each. Typical price is $9.99 I think but sometimes they have 3 for $24.99.

I dunno.

With the passing of my melanurus I might be able to but I feel like my leucoxanthus is quite the hunter so I'm not sure how they'd fare with him. I think Kona is breeding them and I still have $50 or $60 in store credit. I could buy one and drop it at the Aiptasia at night I suppose...

Ya mine made it in my 32g with a sixline and a yellow wrasse and now with a carpenter’s and a blue head wrasses. That’s for but they are only seen when the wrasses are sleeping. I was really surprised when I saw them in the new tank, I added them for aptasia, they did a bang up job. That was so long ago I don’t remember when it was.

They had blue head wrasse at petco the day I got my purple tang. The lady working there said they are jerks. Lol

I'm referring to Berghia. My Peppermint lived for 2-3 years with all 3 - the melanurus, leucoxanthus, and Leopard.

Mine is a model citizen, sure she wasn’t talking about blue head wrasse owners?
