Close lol, it was February :p. I became highly enamored with this hobby. Enough to make it borderline an obsession lol. I research fish, corals, and inverts every chance I get. Thinking about trying to get a part time job at a LFS just to get a little experience with retail for fish. Then, hopefully a little fragging/fish retail business so I can start selling stuff legit :p

I have several tanks lol. A 55g, 29g Bio, 26g Bowfront, and since I broke down the 60g hex I set up a little 10g nano lol. I have a 180 sitting in my garage for when I move, and I have a 6x6 rack that I'll be setting up in my new place to start breeding clowns and bangais :p

They are very easy to breed lol. The male does all the work. Spits our self sufficient juvenile fish :).

Also, may be getting a part time job at a LFS by me for Sundays. :)

I picked up a pair of what I thought was normal Maroon Clowns. To be my surprise, the female turned out to be a Yellow Striped one lol.

Also, a sneak peak of my new 5g Pico! :)

Lol, I already gave away a bunch of spare frags I had to a guy in my reefing club. You don't live all that far away, if you want, I can save some for you when they start growing back out?

That would be great.

Is that a bubble coral on the left of your tank? Love the brain, tank is looking great

Yes, its a large bubble coral. And no problems on sharing the love as things grow out.
I'll even frag the brain for you when the time comes :)

You can get lower grade ones for cheaper! They still look really cool too :)

Pair of Picassos Clownfish ref015 - Exotic Reefs

These are 60$ for the pair and then shipping. Still ends up being like 55ish per fish. Which isn't bad :p

They have a bunch of different clowns :)
