Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

This Lobophyllia had his filaments out and they were long. I gave him a wide berth. I would say similar to the Acanthastrea, but the Acan feeders are pretty short. Only a couple of inches. The Lobo’s are much longer. 6-8” sounds right.

EDIT: I will try and spot feed him tomorrow. Maybe one of the kids can help with a video.

I can just comment on experience. I’ve seen lobos kill coral that gets within 6” of them. My trachy has candy canes, a Duncan and another trachy sitting next to it and there hasn’t been a problem.

I know a number of people like this...

Yep, we go to the same buffet......

I have been tempted to elbow someone at a buffet.

Me too.

BTW, I am making slow cooker apple spice cake cobbler right now. Only 2 more hours!

I'm one of the strange ones that will not eat at a buffet. Not ever. I just cannot bring myself to do it.
As a matter of fact, a number of years ago I was a Regional Sales Director for a company and had roughly a little over 140 people that I lead. A couple times a year I would take the whole team out for dinner. More than once they voted to go to a popular buffet. I went and drank coffee. Black coffee. I didn't even trust the creamer.

That sounds awesome!

So, it appears that a partial theme has developed with the fans of this thread of posting pics of their fish and corals. In keeping with the partial theme, I thought I would post a pic of a puffer my daughter got me for my birthday recently. It has quickly become the lowest maintenance fish I have ever owned.

I would like to introduce "Hufflepuff." (Take a wild guess what Kyla's all-time favorite book and movie series is!)

Some of my fish. I believe these would thrive in my dry tank! I would QT them first, of course. :)

Very cool! Did you paint all of them?

 

[Fin]

Um, no. Franklin Mint porcelain. There are about a dozen more of them.

Ahhhhh... good 'ol Franklin Mint!

I'm thinking it would be a cool idea to produce these as plain white and sell them with a paint kit. One a month. Like a "Fish of the Month" painting club.

 

[dantimdad]

I want some of those for the shelf I set into the wall in the hallway.

 

[dantimdad]

That sounds awesome!

C'mon down! I forgot the vanilla ice cream so that's your job. :)

How many gallons is that display???

Do you want caramel drizzle?

 

[dantimdad]

Do you want caramel drizzle?

No, think we are good with just the ice cream. Vanilla bean from Bryers

You do realize @Katrina71 I can have like a bite of this thing and I will get a whole bunch of stuff done in an hour then be out for the night. LOL!

The "All You Can Eat Buffet" closest to me also used to cater the Atlanta Pre-Trial Detention Center (city jail). Fried catfish was brought out from the kitchen in a wheelbarrow (I'm not exaggerating) and put on the steam table with a shovel, cleaned well of course, ha ha.

I grew up in Mississippi as a kid and ate things cooked in a barrel, the ground, and even in beer cans. Eh.

Kinda like this? And, notice the cooler in back.
