Nano reef dwellers????

The 50g is sold (at least we hope so still!!!!)...ssooooooo we have to more the Gold Stripe Maroon clowns out....we are thinking that a 10g on the counter would be nice...a live rock or two, the maroons (since they are so nasty anyways) and a small clean up crew would be nice! We had purchased a 90g with stand and cap to house these guys in because the 50 is sold but that tank is NOT going to work for us (it's quite frankly a DIY POS ... do it yourself piece of shit). We'll sell it for a song and find the appropriate 90-120g for the right side of the kitchen. May take a while...a LONG while but that is ok. We are going to be just fine with the 2 large tanks and the 10g. Won't take long to put together and then we can deliver the 50g hopefully to the new owners on the weekend of Sept 9!

Rayzin hell elsewhere!

After "Rayzin", the Purple Tang killed our Moorish Idol...he was tough to look at...OK almost threw him down the toilet...but decided not to. Heading to Vancouver for the weekend and decide to sell him. If we get our new Moorish Idol we don't really want to take the chance of both fish in one tank and the 50g is just too small so we talked to Mike at Hidden Reef in Abbotsford and he took the fish! Yay!!!! for a credit...and BOY OH BOY did we spend it well!!!!!! Check out "Salted Please" in the next couple of days for an update on that...but yes, our Purple Tang has moved to different waters. Once released into the LONG tank he was swimmin around all over, and is one of the smaller fish in the tank with a LARGE Sailfin Tang to boss him around! Plus some puffers, triggers and more! So, if you were wondering where it was...there you go!
