I’ll take one off your hands ;) lol

I'll keep that in mind once these guys settle down and split again for sure.
Ok guys, need help. I have zoas taking over SPS territory. How do I make them scream and not poison the tank?

Get a Coral Beauty - or will lend you mine. I will even enclose pre-paid shipping label ;) But seriously my Coral Beauty eats Zoa's like they are skittles. dang thing.

Ever notice how kids say random things that make you melt? This morning he randomly said he missed being stuck in traffic longer with me in the mornings.
we have decided that "raising" adult kids is an oft misunderstood and rarely talked about skill. We are now going to make time to alternate months taking each one out individually to spend the evening and spend some time with just them... we will see how this works...the day to day will be put on hold and hopefully some quality time will be spent.

My female clown eats coral beauties like they are twinkies. Seriously, shes 2-0. Peaceful as can be with everything else, myself included. She even let me near her eggs. I love coral beauties and would love to have one, but I know what would happen to it.

Btw @Robin Haselden I'm a little jealous of your "problem"
You can have some of my problem. I have a carp ton of zoa frags to make... hopefully a few locals will buy some. I need to get that 20 long set up as a make shift frag tank so I have somewhere to put all these things. Literally hundreds of zoas to frag.

Bonnie is right in the center looking at the camera, Clyde is off to the left. I'm 99% sure they are photons. Cross between a Darwin ocellaris and a percula. Faces and pectoral and pelvic fins keep bright orange entire lives. These guys are around 5-6 years old.

I wouldn't have thought that a clown would do that, ouch.
Not average size clown. She's every bit of 3.5" and built like a brick ****house. She's peaceful, but absolutely no one messes with her. You can see all the other fish bicker every now and then, but not with her or her mate.

99.9999% of my time at home is barefooted. Only the strong fry bacon naked, or is that stupid?
Most to all of my clothes come off when I walk in the door. I hate feeling restricted.

My female mocha ocellaris is absolutely huge as well. She's every bit of 4". Everybody freaks out over her size when they see her. Fortunately she's very peaceful and will swim circles around my hand if I have it in the tank for maintenance. But she used to bite me hard enough to bring blood when I first got her. Several months of hand feedings fixed that problem.
