First shipment of LR here

[Cloudburst2000]

Just got a call from the Bluegrass Airport that my two boxes are sitting there waiting for me to pick them up. I just happen to have a doozy of a cold today too...or maybe allergies. Pooh, but yay about the rock. I'm leaving work early so I should pick them up around noonish. This will be my first shipment for my new 16g Nuvo. I'll call the airport back before I leave to verify that the boxes are there and where exactly I need to go to pick them up.

I put the sand and rock in the tank. Really nice rock with lots of life, and it's just the first shipment. Got a few hermits that I know of in the sand. It's really still too cloudy to tell much. And I also have either a pistol shrimp or a mantis in one of the rocks. I can hear him clicking away in the tank. I know exactly which rock it is hiding in. It was the first rock I put in the tank. The shrimp immediately started clicking before I even had the chance to put the other rocks in the tank so if I can't figure out how to capture the thing (assuming it is a mantis) then I can move the entire rock to my smaller aquarium which I set up assuming that I would have a few hitchhikers that would need to come out. I'm kinda hoping it is a mantis. A mantis tank would be neat.

I'll post some pics tomorrow after the sand has settled down and I can actually see into the tank. The sand had settled down somewhat but then I disturbed it again when I added my MP10 to the tank. But so far I am very pleased with the rock.
