    New additions! True Percula Clownfish. :D saw them fed at the LFS, and they look relatively healthy. :) Although the lighter of the two has strange looking fins. I hope there is non fin rot.

    Another new add! Foxface Rabbitfish. He's going through the new tank syndrome. :( hopefully he calms down and adjusts soon enough.

    It's just stress. He morphs color to that when i put my face up to the glass. Other than that he looks completely normal. :) they seem to stress easily, but are tanks when it comes to hardiness. :D and hes eating everything I'd put in the tank.

    nice add... do you plan on adding more rock or do you like the minimalistic look to it??

    I think I'm going to purchase base rock from ReefCleaners. Along with a large CUC. :) I'm going to make a rock wall with arches, caves, and other hiding places. I'll leave room in the water column at the top so that the Tomini can swim freely. :) as for adding the rock, I'll order it all at once but add it slowly to not stress the fish. :) now I think I should have gotten rock before the fish. :(
