Powder blue tucking himself away for the night. Tuxido waking up to forage.
This is why territories are important.
Sweet tank!

So your fish have “territory’s”? In the sense that: That section of the tank is that fishes, and when another fish comes near it, it will chase it away?

Im also asking because my goby just went over to the side that my new dottyback lives in and the dottyback nipped and chased the goby over to the other side. Then it left it alone.

I have added a couple of new corals, but no new equipment. I now need more live rock. As I have to destroy a very large piece to remove a monster. It ate 3/4's of my florida ricordea.

So now a long list of picture spam. Kind of. Lets start with the new additions of my addiction.

Now the damage...

The eunice was attempting to steal food from my shrimp.

After an hour of fighting with the large marco rock. I was able to extract pieces of the worm.

I guess I should have taken pictures of the rock. It was probably 10lbs


I found the remains of what was left of my florida inside the rock. From 4 mouths to 1 1/2

SO now my aquarium is lacking space for frags and room to grow for the corals. They are kind of clumped together.

@fishguy242 Here's the new pink octo. Do they all have green mouths and stripes? Large head is still inflating. The bag didn't stink when I opened it, but acclimating lps is always scary.
@flyfisher2 I would take blue pics but, I still don't got my filters purchased. ;Hilarious


Also, my goni bud! Finally extending after gluing it down a few days ago. It is very upset.

In seattle they sold bristle worms to fish with. They were large and brown, but didn't hurt to handle. Never caught anything with them, but the guy next to us was using beef stew and caught a 2 ft shark,

Yes, Had to rehome my beautiful emp. She deserves better. Powder blue nearly tore the eye out of my female firefish. and shredded my gonis. So he went back to the lfs. Foxface, is now terrified there is no one to protect him from the ... unknown..
Whats your opinion on your foxface as im thinking to get one to add next as the last fish.like what algaes it eats.peaceful fish i read?
Shy and scared of own shadow? Etc
