Hi guys just thought I'd throw up a pic or two of my mangrove setup. It's basically a tank devoted to the mangroves. The fish are 3 spot and 4 stripe damsels and there are hermit crabs. The fish and crabs are there to provide nutritional benefit of the plants, however, they live pampered lives themselves. The two big ladies are Red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle), the small pot resting on them is a Black mangrove (Avicennia germinans) that I collected on a recent Florida vacation. The pot on the right is a Large-leafed Orange Mangrove (Bruguiera gymnorhiza) propagule that I recently acquired. I'll be throwing up some update pics periodically! I'd be happy to answer any questions.
