What you got in the box?

Since you have had a chance to look around what is your favorite Reef Store in Washington?
Haven't seen many, in fact today tripled the number. The shark reef in Silverdale is probably the most convenient, being 30 minutes from the in-laws. But the two I hit today were amazing!

I pictured cuz hiding and boring respectively are a peppermint shrimp and po4 reagent.

I may regret not getting the desjardini that was the same size, maybe smaller than the wrasse.

From yesterday

Kicked alk down a touch.

Also, waiting on new fish from fishhotel to come (next week), new baby to come (at any point now), and we're under contract on a house.

Other than that, not a lot going on.
Wow - that’s a lot going on! lol

We did the same many moons ago: the day that my wife went into labor, we bought the house, new car, new job assignment — all at the same time! My wife and I figured that if we can go thru that simultaneously, we can do anything in life thereafter.

Congrats! Very happy for you & your fam! Do send us pics of your non-aquatic “species” when the time comes. ;)

Just stuck out like he was messing with sand. Most of my fish do that too.
That’s one of the reasons why all of my tanks are BB now — so much easier to clean! ;)

Thanks! we're excited and I have a bad habit of doing things all at once or not at all.
So much fun! Thoughts and good vibes heading your and the family's way.
thanks!
