They are next. Right now I am getting some cyber lessons from beerguy.

The pipe fish are sweet. Ok heres the story. Some of you guys might do the same thing and some of you might not; I already know I have a problem and yes, I go to meeting for them

I stopped by a LFS here in midtown and I saw two banded pipefish. I have always like them and I have been really hesitant. Long story short, I got a great deal so I picked them up.

Now what, I went to go get coffee, I really can't walk in with new livestock. So like any other good reefer, I snuck them into the garage and started acclimating them When my wife went to bed, they made it into the tank.
I get a call the next day from my wife and the 1st thing she said was "Oh my god, when did you get the pair of pipefish"? She wentto tell me this long story of when she was snorkling in Hawaii. All I could think was, All right...

Which ones, or are you going to tease us again?

I've got 4 tangs coming later next week from BZ, as well as some of their food mix.

 

[jtarmitage]

I was sooooo close to ordering the spotted face too, but was already getting carried away!:lol:

:lol: Yeah, I figured as much, especially with your recent tang battles. Are they looking for a particular wrasse for you as well?

 

[mpoletti]

Everyone is looking for a particular wrasse for me I have moved out a lot of my zoas and palys prepping the tank for an angel or two.

 

[jtarmitage]

Got it. I know of 1 but the other is a mystery to me.

I have decided against most angels and rabbits as I like the mix of LPS in the tank and just don't want to deal with that problem. I'm already planning out the next tank, and I haven't even got this one up yet!!!
I'm thinking multi tank single system, with FOWLR in one, and full reef in the other with common sump. Some day maybe, but don't want to even attempt getting that one past the wife just yet. Maybe I am a pushover? :lol:

You can have all the tanks you want when she leaves you.

Lets get your 250 up and running before we turn your daughter's room into a FO system

I am sure we can get rid of a few things to make room :lol:

 

[jtarmitage]

:lol: We can just take a page out of airinhere's pad. Tanks in the entry, tanks in the living room, tank in the bedroom....Oh, and garage is filled with fish crap. Who needs a place to sit or sleep?:rollface:

 

[Jim_S]

Sounds like airinhere as quite a few tanks :lol:

Mark, those are great shots of your tangs!!!

How are those pipe fish doing? They looked so cool!!!
