LR arrived last Tuesday!

[seastarUSC]

Thanks Richard for the great LR! I only got 25lbs of LR and 10lbs of LS, but it came with all sorts of critters. You did a great job picking out the pieces for the teaching lab tank at USC.

Here's a list of what it came with:

*tons of feather dusters
*4 porcelain crabs (I counted the legs to make sure they were the good crabs)
*lots of barnacles
*cup corals
*small pink chiton
*6-8 brittle stars (0.5 in -3 in)
*a fish-i think it's a lawnmower blenny
*pink, yellow, & orange encrusting corals
AND tons more I have yet to identify

For all you thinking about TBS rock, it's great and it cycled already...that's less than a week and my lettuce nudibranch, condy, urchins, and peppermint shrimp are loving it.

If the fish is sort of gray, transparent with black stripes, it is a tiger goby. I got mine in my first ship[ment. They live in the rock. I thought mine was some sort of bug at first until he got big enough and brave enough for me to get a good look. Now he often perches on the rock. He has grown to a little over one inch.

Thanks for the ID on the fish. He's a sneaky one. I've only found him once since I put him in the tank; he dug a little hole under some rock so I could only see his huge eyes.

More pictures are coming soon, I promise. I just have to cut them down a little so that I can post them.

Here's a little glimpse of my lettuce nudi. He's on the Ulva on the bottom of the picture. He's only about an inch so he's a little hard to see but fun to watch.
