Turtle's Deep Blue Sea

[Scurvy]

That would be sweet but until the Waterbox is up I think it might be too stressful on it. Maybe in about a month would be cool, thanks ! !

No rush, shout when you're ready. In the meantime I'll try to get it situated on a piece of rubble.

Yep sorry @Fudsey i thought i had the name. Been looking for one for the last year. Every time I found one it was sold. So my lfs saved one for me.

Lovely colour, I got a small £5 head the other day, brown though. :)

... also excited for the turtles! ;)

Ya my lfs has one that has split three times on the same rock but it’s not green.

Your pics are just amazing

Your pics are just amazing

Thanks, I lost the love of photography maybe late twenties years old, when I got my first marine tank it sparked my interest again, it is my companion hobby, my cameras live on my desk, the Nikon leaves the house a couple of times a year when I go to tack pics of my lfs display! ;)

Agreed, @najer you have some skills with the lense! My pictures are horrendous. I try and try but the iphone camera is a joke in comparison to a real digital camera or even one that comes on a Samsung. I've bribed my brother into giving me his old phone to use only for aquarium pics when he upgrades soon. Im hoping it helps!

 

[Fudsey]

Thanks @Scurvy will do :-)

Thanks, I have an iphone SE, this was hand held top down at my lfs the day I bought the explosion in a crayon factory trachy, phone cameras and pretty much all cameras like to be square on to the glass!
Anyone that has not tried this, place your camera flat to the glass then zoom or focus, see what you get? :)

[najer]

Very pretty.
(Says the man with no wrasse!) ;)

 

[Scurvy]

Todays gonna be another good DD wrasse day. A couple Johnson, Rhomboid, Dusky, Attenuatus, Lineatus, Moyers, Carpenters, Mystery all listed as possible.

 

[Katrina71]

I don't have a wrasse either. I'm afraid my little guys will get eaten. They are very pretty.

 

[sfin52]

Try a larger one like a Halichoeres melanurus wrasse. They get bigger.

Nah, they wont get eaten. Unless of course you have a Lion Fish we don't know about?? They're a mostly hardy fish until you get into Leopards or Annampsis.
