I love the rock' date=' Looks like you have some really nice larger pieces :-)[/quote'] looks really good' date=' did you go with the BRS rock?[/quote'] Thanks Gill! Yes some very large pieces, sadly I had to take a hammer to a couple of them to knock of some pieces to get it to fit in the tank. Smann.... Yes we got about 100 lbs of the pukani rock when it was on sale a while back, have had it curing in a 100 gal rubbermaid tub in out bath tub!! LOL There is 2 pieces on the right that was from our other tank, one from Tim and the other from Isaac, you can see they still have a lot of purple coraline algea on them!

rubberduck9 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Wow, bueatiful fish ladies! I see you went through with the flame hawk! Love those little guys. That wrasse is gorgeous! I have always been facinated with the peacock mantis so let me know how it goes. From what I understood they will decimate a clean up crew and can inflict a nasty wound so be careful while cleaning.

So only the hermits and snails I toss to him will get eaten!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote'] Yeah he's in the refugium of the sump. I was tempted to post on reef central how I had him in the main tank LOL! Yeah Patrick Beth has wanted a flame hawk but seeing it in your tank made her have to have one now! Could not pass on the good deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think pipefish are cool Colton but Beth can't stand them LOL! She thinks they look too much like snakes... I'm still amazed I was able to talk her into the snowflake eel. She doesn't like him at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeFit Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Yea that was a sweet looking little hawk fish. Glad you like him, hopefully he doesn't turn into a little turd.(fingers) I have a mantis in my sump as well, i stick my hand in all the time and clean his little area. They aren't as aggressive as they would seem in my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
