Passed again on the mimic tang. Just thinking about it makes my heart race. But, what if it's a really chill tang? Scopas may not like another fish addition either. So there is that.

Gunna go mess with the Digital camera to dial in colors.
Phone camera isnt cutting it...

I miss you piglet!!

Snails or choco tang time?
Are those dino bubble inbetween GHA strands?

Do you have any conches? Conches are my go-to sand bed cleanup crew. Hard little workers.

Second the turbo for the rocks. If you aren't too worried about sticks falling over, the turbos are great rock cleaners! Note: conches LOVE diatoms, too, and mine will even go on the rocks to get them.

Went to lfs yesterday. Lemon mimic choco. Shes shy, not a zoomer. But has tried to make a swim buddy. Everyone denied her. But, these fish have an electric blue color markings ilunder windex mode. It's kind of awesome.

I really try to figure each out. A lot if the times it's an accident.

So, i got the shrooms. I'm going with stressed fire forest rhodactis.
Psst, the st thomas would look frekking awesome under 10k. I'll see what i can do once the mimic tang settles in

I have to fight myself not to move them around to quickly.

I always wonder how I got the other ones right the first time and then there are the ones who just want to see how much you can touch them I swear!!

Look no filters

I don't use filters either. I haven't brought the digital camera back down either. Anytime I get free time, it comes to an end just as soon as I try to use it.
Some of my older pics.

I really need to get batteries for my Nikon d5000. The Nikon J1 can take some decent photos….have to see if when I don’t throw a bigger lens if I can adjust the settings needed to take no filter photos
