    8 bucks each is very good. Ive never seen them for anything less than $25 here. But thats from one store that has brought them in. Obviously their pricing is a little high.

    I just looked in my tank and noticed one of the Kryptonite Candy Cane heads are splitting! :D

    Tell me about it! I hadn't seen growth with anything before the crash, but since then, my Zoas/Palys, Meteor Shower Cyphastrea, and now my Candy Cane are growing :D

    Quick update: I'm an idiot.

    I was thinking that I needed the camera cable to transfer pictures. I then remembered this morning that there is a memory card in it :loco:

    So I'll post pictures shortly.

    Just to add some more info, you won't be able to get any carnivores such as wrasse with the Sexy Shrimp. They will just make a nice lunch. I also read to get at least 3, 5 would even be better so you can see them all the time. They are ~$17/each at both my LFS, so $8 is a great deal.

    How long have you had the Duncan? Mine started to grow new heads after only a couple weeks in my tank. After a couple months, it know has 7 heads that are getting bigger daily. Shows the most growth out of all my corals :)

    Finally, how much did you get your Meteor Shower for, just curious? My LFS has a tiny frag for $55. Luckily a customer brought in a couple of large "frags" (3"-4" diameter) for $50 each, so I picked one up :)

    I'm not sure if I'm even going to add fish. I'm going to have a FOWLR tank set up soon, though. I'll save the fish for that tank :)

    I might get 5 Shrimp if my LFS can get that many in. We'll see :)

    I've had my Duncan for about 6 months.

    My LFS was selling the Cyphastrea for $20, but I asked if they could go any lower, so they gave it to me for $10 8) I'm surprised they went that low. I think you got a good deal for that size, though :)

    I'm alittle late on this post but $8 each for sexy shrimp is a great deal. My LFS was asking 12.99 and I've seen them on live aquaria for 9.99 but of course that's without shipping...

    Thanks for the info! That's good to know :) I looked at Liveaquaria as well and was like "Oh, that's not a bad deal", but I had forgotten about shipping :)
