Krish's Bahamian Photo log

[Krish]

LOL!! Thanks! Actually, instead of torturing my corals with the limited light my Aquapod had compared to what they were use to in my 38gal cube (almost double the wattage) I took out all of the corals except the zonthids. I plan to upgrade the lighting in a week or 2 so I can get them back so as it stands, teh tank is just basically rock I'm actually going to the tidepools in a bit so I may have some pics to share

 

[Krish]

Well...It was too windy to see well in the water so I didn't get any fish, but I did catch this shrimp. I have a thread up now to get an ID on it which I'll post the name here later when/if I get one

Hey Krish, hows the tadpole doing. Your not so new now fish.

 

[Krish]

Which tadpole???I don't have saltwater frogs The shrimp got stuck in the powerhead so I have to go back out hunting for more stuff. As soon as I get the stuff done to the tank, I will get more stuff and add some pics

 

[Krish]

Cool pics krish! Do you know what type of tang it is?

-augustus

 

[Krish]

Thanks Augusts! And on the type, couldn't say for sure. I think we tried to ID it here before, but what kept coming up was an Atlantic Blue tang if I remember correctly, but it's not one as I am pretty familiar with the Atlantic blue. I'll have to do some research in some Bahamian fish charts to get the exact name and let you guys know

 

[balogh03]

Weird...everything that i just googled was a blue tang. I couldnt get ANY other type that is in the bahama's.

-augustus

 

[Krish]

LOL! Yeah...It's not the atlantic blue though. Here's a another shot of the same fish I took in Atlantis' tank swimming in a school. I'll find the name of it though for you.

 

[gman0526]

That's what's commonly known as a Doctorfish (Acanthurus chirurgus)

There's also some Acanthurus bahianus Ocean Surgeonfishes

[ronj]

can you catch one for me???????????????????????????

 

[Krish]

Thanks Jorge! That's what Bahamians refer to them as (well surgeon fish rather than tang) when trying to describe them. The links wouldn't load up for me, but I googled it and you are right on the money!

can you catch one for me???????????????????????????

Easy as pie! Almost as easy as swimming

Think you could fit a school in your cube?

LMAO!
