    I didn't. I broke the rock up with a chisel/hammer when I got here. Gave the ice cube trick one last time then just went at it ;)

    Actually this is even better: I pulled up to a stoplight and one started going like mad. All over the windshield/dash, etc (the bucket was on the floorboard by the front passenger seat). I threw it in park, climbed into the back in a panic, and grabbed a towel to throw over the bucket. Then I looked at the people next to me at the light. They had watched the whole thing. The looks on their faces was just priceless.

    LMFAO!!! That is priceless! You should have rolled down the window and said..."Say hello to my invisible friend." LOL. That should be in a reef joke book. LOL!

    LOL. You should have seen it Matty. They where both attached to a pretty big rock, so we took the rock out to put in my bucket and they went nuts. All over the guys house. Down the hall, against the wall, at us, I think one even hit a copy/fax machine.

    I really liked this one:

    And top down. Blurry I know but a tough angle:

    This is the "brown one" at the top of the tank. Interestingly its already changing colors, and getting some purple/blue:

    Also, I'm begging to worry about my hydno. It opened after I added it yesterday, but hasn't opened again since. And it may be because of the angel. I think I caught it nipping. I'm going to have to wait to be sure, but if it's confirmed, the angel will have to go.
    And my female clown has been acting odd. Last night she was going at one spot on the glass like mad. To the point of hard breathing. She has lightened up on it today but is still doing it occasionally. Either it's lost it's mind, or it may be "rock cleaning" on the glass?

    When you take out the angel, why not make it 2for and take out the clown too?

    LOL, because the male clown would be upset with me ;D. And the clowns would be the LAST fish I would get rid of in my tank ;)
