My new Nano!!!

I cannot wait to see pics of your new fishy

As Angie mentioned, we added the fish that this tank was set up for, last night. What Angie didn't mention is that Madison named this fish as well. Sooo, now we have a Percula Clownfish named "Cootie" and a Tailspot Blenny named "Tutu."

This morning, we see "Tutu," but so far, it is hiding, so no pics yet. Sorry!!
Here are some pics I shot this morning though.

Cootie (so far, we've been unable to teach Cootie to pose. Still working on it though.)

Maybe Kedds Reds.

Bam Bams

Radioactive Dragon's Eyes

Frogspawn Mouth

One of our Candy Canes

We have 2 Frogspawn colonies in her tank. This one's tentacles stay short, while the other colony seems much longer.

FTS

oooo I see sticks....
Love the tank..
And the pics.

"Tutu" is still in hiding, picking food from the back wall. I was able to catch a few pics, but this is about the only one that is any good. Once Tutu ventures out, into some brighter light, I'll get some better ones.

Michael was able to get a better pic of Tutu. Tutu is finally starting to come out in the open a little bit. Here's also a couple of pictures of a couple new additions. Enjoy!!
Tutu. Barbie had 3 and Michael and I debated over 2. We decided on this one, with Barbie's help in deciding.

A gorgeous clam we found at Barbie's.

1 of 5 sexy shrimp we got from Kevin's.

 

[Myteemouse]

very nice is that a tail spot blennie??
I love the clam..

Looking good ANGIE..

 

[returnofsid]

Yes, that's "Tutu," our Tailspot Blenny. That fish, and the sexy shrimp, are the reason Angie set this tank up...lol. The T. maxima clam is a beautiful one. We have another small one, in our frag tank, that will end up in Angie's nano soon as well.

 

[daveysmart]

I was wondering where that clam was gonna go. I sure wish my tank was ready for one, they looked real nice! I like your blenny too. Keep those sexies well fed so they dont pick on your zoas.

 

[G&NSalty425]

Love the Sexy Shrimp I wish I had a small enough tank for them

 

[MGDMIRAGE]

Nice you two.. are the sexies gonna be safe in there when the fish grow up a bit? they are sooo tiny.

 

[Myteemouse]

Any new pics???

 

[Madisons_Mommy]

Sorry I haven't updated in awhile, been very busy. We don't really have any new pics yet!! Right now we're battling a Cyano problem and it's ugly!!! LOL. I have added lots of new Zoas though and we did add a Yasha Hasi Goby(sp) and a small shrimp and also a Red Neon Goby that we never see. We unfortunately lost "Tutu" our Tailspot Blenny. We're not sure what happened to him. I'm sure we'll be getting another. I've been thinking about re-aquascaping, but we'll see how that works out for me....lol.

 

[brandyrb]

Sorry to hear about your tailspot blenny. I lost my first one because it jumped out of the tank. My guess is it was being chased by a sleeper banded goby. I ended up getting a second one and he/she is safe and well. I traded in the goby though.

 

[returnofsid]

We have no idea what happened to ours. One day, we just didn't see it. After a couple of days, we drained the back area of the nano and looked back there, with no luck. So, we aren't sure if it jumped, made it into the back chamber and got sucked up by one of the 3 powerheads that are back there, or what? If it jumped, it could have been gobbles up by the cat before we noticed it missing...lol. All in all, it sucks!! We miss Tutu.

Red neon goby? I've never seen a red one. If you can get a pic, I'd love to see it cause I can't find anything on google images. I've got 2 of the hybrid blue/yellow striped neon gobies which are always out and fun to watch cleaning fish.

 

[returnofsid]

Since our's hides so much, I've been unable to get a picture of it. But here's some information, including a picture. http://www.fishbase.gr/Summary/SpeciesSummary.php?id=46894 and it's a Elacatinus puncticulatus

 

[gotfish]

Thanks for the info. Cute looking, but that's kind of odd that it's not out and about. From what I've read, most of the cleaner gobies should be in the open waiting for fish to clean. If they hide and don't come out and eat, it's a sign it isn't doing well.

 

[returnofsid]

While referred to as a Neon Goby, they aren't a Cleaner Goby, and it's typical of them to be in hiding most of the time. True cleaner Gobies are Gobiosoma sp.

I don't know about that. http://www.wetwebmedia.com/neongobies.htm Both of those species seem to be considered cleaner goby. Might be some good info for you to read on there.

 

[returnofsid]

I read through that, as well as tons of other information on them, before we decided to get it. There are some readings that they're a cleaner goby, but there are many others, including a lot on WWM, that say they aren't. Funny you bring that up, I was just reading a bunch of information on another subject on WWM and 2 FAQ in a row contradicted each other...lol. I usually trust WWM for about the best information around, but I have seen some contradictions on there. Who knows, maybe they are some type of cleaner goby.
