    New Addition is the Neon Goby. I finally caught the little guy after almost completely tearing apart my 75g.

    He's already found a nice spot for himself. ;D

    You have no IDEA..... :angry: lol

    I tore the 75g apart last night for 1 1/2 hours trying to get him and just gave up. I figured it would be better to try again in the morning instead of messing with him anymore. So I went to bed, got some sleep and woke up this morning to feed the fish and he darted out of his hole as soon as the food hit the water!

    He was going nuts in the cloud of food, out in the open! I of course having no net anywhere near me, cupped him into the corner of the tank with my hand, grabbed my acclimation container, and when I filled it the suction pulled him right into the container! Took 1 minute. :hothead:

    I couldn't believe it and I had to sit down to stare at the friggin container for a good couple of minutes before acclimating him. LOL

    Okay. So the neon goby was kinda lonely and last night my pair of cleaner shrimp migrated to the 29g to give him some company. I was completely unaware of their plans and did nothing to facilitate this move. ::)

    I needed a little bit more of a Bio-load anyways to keep the bacteria pop. up. So this worked out for everyone. ;D
