Well this week has been an amazing week for me! I have been one lucky person with getting this reef tank together. Before this weekend my tank was housing 2 yellow tail damsels and 8 chromis(now down to 1). Well after finally getting the parameters to where they need to be I decided to take a leap and add more fish but before all that I decided to make a phone call to my lfs and ask if they would take the 125lbs of extra live rock I had a carpet anenome, 2 green brittle starfish and 1 serpent starfish (the stars I received in a great deal from a mom and pop shop closing down the street from my work which I also got a yellow tang and black damsel along with some hermits and snails all for $20). Now let's get to the best part of the weekend! Today I took the leap and went to the LFS to take my critters and live rock and got my store credit and decided to spend a little money. It wasn't easy to decide I think I was there for an hr just looking around and it didn't make it any easier with having my best friend by my side saying get this get that lol. After looking around for some time I finally got my eye caught on what would be my first addition to my tank, this was a rose bubble tip anenome. After deciding to go with the rose nem I said nothing better than having a pair of clownfish to go with it and I quickly picked out pair of clowns. Now the decisions became harder and I couldn't bear it anymore. The corner of my eye quickly became attracted from something across the room and this was a pink spotted watchman goby after picking him out what else but to get a candy cane pistol shrimp to go with him. I wanted to get one more fish before leaving and couldn't decide between a foxface, flame angel or coral beauty this I had my friend choose and he was quick to say coral beauty and I am glad he did! The coral beauty has such amazing color and adds so much to my tank. After getting to the cash register I was prepared to be spending some money and quickly forgot about the credit it all came to $185 and after the credit it was $65. I was thrilled and couldn't wait to get home. This week/ weekend has been amazing for me and literally watching my tank come alive bit by bit! Once again to everyone who shared information in any of my previous threads thank you for all your support and knowledge, I appreciate it all. I added come pictures of what I could get after adding them to the tank ( the coral beauty has just been roaming in the rocks the whole time)
