I have some platys too. They’re all brainncorals. And they all pack a punch of they get angry. Lol. Just depends on whether the other coral can feel the punch.

They’re beautiful but placement is tough. I had to cut mine up and beg people to take the frags. It was just too big. Couldn’t risk anymore coral deaths. Destroyed a whole colony of pink goniopora. ;Dead

I love the tank from this angle. Glad I decided to do the barnacle. Even thought the goby has 0 interest in them. ;Hilarious Off to work now.

Lol. Yeah. Just the “shell” though.
Goodness. I did not know they got that big. But I’m not surprised. I’ve seen limpets get pretty big but not even surpassing that size. Guess you could get an eel and he multiple caves ready for him.

I like the profile angles. Probably how the fish see it more often too.

I’ve said this a million times, I am a horrible photographer. What I see and what the camera sees is an argument in itself

Lol. That was part of my future plans too. I’m still hoping my goby finds them. He historically changes homes regularly.

Talking about favias (iPhone autocorrected to facials :rolleyes:), my friend offered me this for $12. Kind of can’t say no.

You should look into barnacle blennys, you can get a bunch of them and they will all have their own hole in the barnacle and live as a community. They are cute.

Loving the look of the barnicles; goes great to a a more "natural" look in the tank.

I purchased them to cover the openings to the pvc cave network I made for my goby... not sure if I posted a picture of that. He doesn't seem to care about it at all though... :) He's thwarted my best efforts.

All right... Like every Monday night, I've placed a bunch of bids at WWC. I'm hoping to win at least one thing there. I have yet to be successful at their ebay auctions though.

Next steps... actually finish ordering my Octo aquatics top, buy a mind stream, get an atk, figure out a better aquascape with the new coral coming, buy a beautiful war paint scoly , buy a pretty maxima clam. Then I’ll think I’ll be done for a while. Maybe a fish or two after all that.
