    So I changed the scape yet again but it's still a cave; IMO this cave looks nicer. The peppermint is doing well, and I've increased my stock by adding my algae blenny. Had him in a bucket for a while and decided it was time for him to come into the DT. Pics will come after the sand settles

    he's still there lol. well i went to another LFS and this employee kept trying to make me buy something. First of all he told my dad i could keep a blue or yellow tang in a 30 gallon (dad lied about me having a 30 gallon to them since he thinks a 10 is embarrassing... lol if only he knew that lots of maintenance is involved.) Wow he has problems lol. I saw regular firefish and was thinking about it but the bioload needs to adjust. Besides they had ick XD. Then he tried to convince me to get a baby spotted mandarin. Even my dad tried to convince me, since the employee said that i just needed brine and should put some pods in every week (that sounds expensive dont you think?) Thank god i didnt get one; I was actually thinking about it! *slaps self 5 times*. They also had a sea apple... yeah a sea apple... Looks interesting; about $50 or so. Looked really weird but cool lol. so yeah thats my little experience. Anyway my camera's done charging so i'll post some pics now ;D

    Wow...it's happened before and I've seen it happen...employees lie just to make a b. Wuckhat's even worse is they do it to people who are new and don't know what they are doing. It's pretty sad, actually. :(

    "The fish will die, but who cares? We just made $20."

    Boy, I thought my thread was getting a lot of comments...yours has been up for 4 weeks and you have twice as many pages as I do! :D

    The tank is looking good. I would keep the shed in there. The shrimp will eat it and gain nutrients from it.

    Nice scape now, too.
