I know I should be saving my $ for lights, but I couldn't help myself. I went on a tour of the LFSs in the area between Newark De, and Baltimore. I ended up with a bright lime/neon green feather duster for free, a pom pom crab, a strawberry crab?I think that's what they are called and.... a "pair" of PURPLE Coral banded shrimp!(Stenopus tenuirostris) I read about these guys last night and heard they were rare. I don't know if they are really hard to find, regardless I don't care I have wanted a pair or shrimp to breed for a long time and I love the coral bandeds more then any other shrimp.(I know not many others seem to like them because you can't keep a lot with the normal coral bandeds)

Pictures and my opinions of some of the LFSs coming soon. I gotta see if I can get pics. :-D
 
Well these are the best pics ever. They also really show off how dirty this tank is. I'll try to get more later. <CENTER><IMG SRC="http://reefcentral.com/gallery/data/565/48214HPIM5839cs.JPG">

Yours looks like it's smiling, mine just looks ****ed off, lol.

My shrimp are claiming the tank and chasing my strawberry crab off. I hate to make a reference to this particular movie, but I would give these guys the same voices that the crabs in Finding Nemo had, lol. "Get outa here!"

I have a couple of good shots of my gorg just been waiting to get my website up and running. Ok my baby Gecko is begging for food, I gtg.
 
Pom pom crabs are very entertaining to watch.

Nice coral bandeds too, where did you wind up getting them at?
