Revenge for the Zoanthids

LOL Ok, so I have a fish only tank, with a baby panther grouper in it. And I got a call from a friend today who was having some tank problems. Sure enough, on her leathers (And really, I'm guessing all over her tank), were some nudis. So I printed Mucho's FW Lugols recipe and gave it to her. While she was fixing it, I rinsed out my water bottle, filled it with tank water, and shook a crapload of nudis into it from a bunch of rocks and leathers :twisted: . There were so many they weren't even hiding so much, they were all looking for food.

After I got home, I took a blunt pair of eyebrow tweezers and started dropping them in the water. Oh my gosh, but didn't he like them!!! :shock: To bad he isn't reef safe, or I could rent the little vacuum cleaner out. :lol:

Hahahaha, also from Jamie's house is this little sickly blenny. I am trying to get him to eat algae in my FO tank to get better.

Have you ever seen cats snuggle up to each other, with one paw around the other? I walked past the tank, and the panther grouper was laying next to the blenny with his fin over him. When I got the camera, he left, and then swam back and did it again.

:LOL:

I always liked panther groupers. Very cool looking fish. I just wish I had room for a large FOWLR tank.

Hehehe I almost bought a 3rd 55 gallon this week. I walked into a local LFS, and one of the teenage employees had accidentally marked a furniture grade hood, tank, stand, and light at $250!!!!!!!!! So I ask the owner to hold it overnight at that price for me, so I could try to go home and sweet talk Kris into it (He had said I could get a prop tank a while ago and I hadn't yet).

Long story short after *much* pleading, the verdict was that 55 gallons is not a prop tank no matter how much it was, no space for it. I had to call the LFS and say I couldn't get it, hardest phone call I have had to make.. *sigh* I could have had another reef in back of the prop stuff!!!
