Hi Shannon!

Nice! What kinds of MaxiJet pumps are they? They will be fine, unless you have a LOT of flow in there. They will find a place near the bottom

Best,
Ilham

I have a 2 MJ600's with hydorflo's. I also get flow from the AquaClear 500 that holds my carbon, heater and chaeto. I have a little plastic canvas that can protect the opening to the skimmer box. I have a blood shrimp and a peppermint shrimp. Do you think they will have any probs competing with them for food?

Not at all Shanon.

They will have a nice time in there Just feed them twice a day, with the crushed foods.

They are really cool to watch. Watch the filter intakes for a little bit.

Best,
Ilham

by the way where did you get your nursery jar ?
or is it just a jar from a jelly thingy ?

 

[lavenderfish]

It's a jar made by Rubbermaid that comes in Gallon and 1/2 gallon sizes. It is clear acrylic and is readily found at the Marysville WalMart.

Hi Ilham
They are eating like happy little pigs and bickering to see who gets to be female. They are fascinating to watch.

To anyone
Feel free to post name suggestions for the pair in this thread. Nothing appropriate has struck me yet.

Here is my latest and most favorite coral so far. :shock: Check out that pink cynarina:shock:

I am pretty fond of that mixed zoa rock in front of it but I am holding that for my hubby's tank. God help us we are both getting into this hobby and that might bankrupt us.

 

[lavenderfish]

Here is an FTS.
Some of these corals are for my hubby's tank but in the meantime my tank looks very full and impressive.

Here are yet a few more clown pics. I am slowly but surely getting better at photographing half inch, semi transparent, fastmoving, and constantly wiggling little fish. I usually do wedding photography. Brides and grooms are much, much easier to keep in the frame and in focus.

Miss Scarlet is ready for her closeup and here is the hubby's new zoa rock.

 

[lavenderfish]

Any idea what this is? It came on a zoa rock. Is it a palythoa? sp? I love the color.

i'd definetly move your cinidaria a little bit away from the zoos .
the clowns and shrimp are very cute and yes those are green palys ( i don't know if they got an exotic name or not )

usually do wedding photography. Brides and grooms are much, much easier to keep in the frame and in focus.

Shannon - tank is looking excellent. I still can't get over that rock and how nice it looks. Your corals are looking stellar - that blueish/green ricordia really caught my eye.. keep up the great work.

I bet you're looking forward to letting the baby ONYX clowns run free. what are your plans for an anemone home for them?

Also.. I can't beleive this is only like the what, the 10th week. boy - you are doing something right. great work and keep those pics coming b/c they are fun!

 

[lavenderfish]

that's so kewl !!! do you do kids too? .

Yup I photograph kids too. I don't have a studio so it is all location photography. That works out really nicely for weddings and senior portraits especially. Here are a few of my kid pics among others.
