    Sorry to butt in but I'm curious :D

    Will peppermints and gobies pair like pistols and gobies? I saw it mentioned earlier and have been wondering.

    I believe he meant a pistol shrimp, as pep shrimp don't really do anything but dance and eat ;) Plus, my pistol shrimp has enjoyed destroying all 6 pep shrimp we've tried adding to or tank...::)

    Great tank! It brings back memories of nine months ago! :D Don't skimp the money on the skimmer and lights, those are some important dudes you'll be buying. Just take it slow if you have to and you'll be happy you did :)

    New stuff on the way

    I finally ordered some stuff to get this tank up to par. I ordered a T5 light fixture, a protein skimmer, a refractometer, and all the test kits I had not yet aquired.;D

    I am also very please with my Diamond Goby. He has been busy making my sand bed look like new!

    Yeah, I've heard that. I think I will be ok with the lid, I have a lot of surface movement and temp is under control so far. I can crank the a/c down a little if I need to.
