Najer's zen twins.

I thought I would try an experiment, take a pic with the camera and the same pic with my phone.
Camera, I waited until the first pair of T5s came on so the camera didn't have a hissy fit!

I downloaded all the pics from my phone but there was an error with 5 pics that didn't download, you guessed it lol, by the time I twigged it another pair of T5s were on so not a fair comparison, ho hum. ;)

You know when you look at something and it takes a few minutes to figure out what is wrong?
Something moved the big chalice, it is at least 6 inches across, I guess I still have at least one mithrax but it could have been an urchin.
Luckily it stopped a couple of inches short of the scroll thingy!

Ok, Poto update, I am still playing with foods, he has been lethargic today for most of the day but still responds well to the spirulina and garlic flake.
It seems like he needs a jump start of food to make him hungry and then he will graze a bit, I will change the feeding order tomorrow to give him an early breakfast and see how he reacts.
He is still losing weight.

This was in the puddle just before I went snip, first frag of the blue cespitularia is in the display, pics tomorrow hopefully. ;)

Hopefully poto is just going through the healing rollercoaster. It still looks 100x better than last month imo. Gotta get that appetite back to normal. Pullin for you both friend

I checked the fish counter yesterday in a supermarket and they had non, I will keep looking, love your idea about them. :)

here in the states, we have Asian markets, as the name implies a lot of Asian products and fresher products especially Seafood. I don't know if there's such a thing where you're at

Thanks, breakfast feed in a bit, I remembered a different flake I have so I will try that for second breakfast.
I'll get a pic once there is some T5 light, he has a really strange behavior routine I am trying to figure out!

Managed to get the shroom pic off my phone from yesterday, I'll stick with the camera! ;)

I just watched the flasher wrasse flash the surface due to the cherub, I got water on my glasses from about 3 feet away, the cherub has to go!

morn simon,have you ever tried fishing in your reef? seriously ,find the smallest treble hook off a lure,clip off 2 of 3 barbs,leaving the eye of the hook on the last ,may have to play catch and release a couple of times with other fish,i have done succesfully many times ,use fishing line ,stick as pole, magnet cleaner to hold in place,so you can sit in covert spot watching and waiting ,never leave alone so they don't swallow,have tweezers/forcepts handy,if you do not understand anything here ask me ,only pic i can show you is hook,but i will have to dig out ,not a prob,anything for POTO;)I will be in and out all day today,happy fishing:cool:

No but I have thought about it!
Poto has dropped weight in his good side face, second breakfast was a fail, still good with green flake.
He has gone off the first pellet he took well, I still have a few things to try!
Notice the first stripe! :(

The second prettiest eyes in my tanks! ... maybe? ;)

 

[najer]

Many more downs than ups this past year, mostly not my fault.
I lost more corals than I want to think about and if I am honest I am a bit jaded about the whole thing.
I watch the tank a lot, the fish keep me honest, I can do this but lose montis, it is all very frustrating at the moment!

 

[fishguy242]

SMILE.....;)

 

[RichtheReefer21]

Those blue diamond eyes though... top 10 fish out there for me.
