    What do you feed the Sparky Vinny.

    So it's the Damsel and the Neon Goby?

    Do you have any of your Sympodium left?

    Very cool Vinny. Lost my yellow tail a few months back(had him forever) and was thinking my 30 was missing something(only 2 clowns). I think you may just have a winner. I can see the red you are talking about. great pic

    Mostly flake pellets and formula 1.
    Its the Damsel,The Sharknose goby and you can't forget Herbie.lol
    No Sympodium.It grows way too fast for me.lol

    They are metalic in the light.Of course you can't really see it in the photo's.Would do very well with clowns or any other semi aggressive fish like dottybacks.Thanks for looking.

    Cool.Post some pics and start a build thread if you haven't already.Its a great way to journal your tank so you can see when you did what.lol
    My first acrylic tank but not my last.Thanks for looking.I removed the Emporer HOB.It was just too darn loud and big.I replaced it with a 100 penguin.I have found not very many HOB's will fit the cutout on the back and this one while small fits like a glove.I will eventually drill and sump it.Added some microbacter7 and I came back in the room and it was crystal clear.lol

    I am really digging this simple setup and small wc volume.So much more time to enjoy it.:)

    P.S. Herbie disappeared for 4 days and I was worried sick.I came in on the 5 th day and there he was back in his spot.Not 5 seconds later here comes Chum who proceeds to bullrush Herbie forcing him out of the barnacle.I couldn't believe it.I rarely consider murder but Chum is pushing his luck.I don't know where Herbie goes but I have many barnacles and added his original cluster to help.The size of the opening and barnacle is crucial to them and now I see why.Herbie has since found a small barnacle an inch away from the side of the tank.Chum has not bothered him but this may explain his other disappearances.(twice before but only for a day or less).:rolleyes:
    Silly fish.;)

    Poor Herbie has to live in fear, Chum needs a time out and Bait might be a better name in the future.

    Interesting about the size and placement of the Barnacle.
