We just received the packaging with our neon wrasse. Inside the box was TWO fish!!! We only ordered and were charged for one. What will we do with two??? LOL
 
pat, right now a yellow tang, an 8 yr old perc clown. a coral beauty and a 6yr old pj cardnal. also a bc shrimp and assorted tbs hitchhickers that i took out of the reef tank
 
You're Welcome!

The tripod came today. It looks to be really nice. It's very sturdy!:thumbsup: MUCH better than what we had. I feel confident using it. I'm sure the pictures will be sharper now.:)
 
It's hard to hold the camera with the macro lense on and manually focus it. The slightest bit of movement and the pictures are blurry.
I just took some, and I do think these are sharper. I just wanted to test and see if there was a difference, and I do think there is.
Now to sit and wait for the perfect shot! (like the orange pistol)

amazing photos.

Dennis - happy bday! So do folks actually get you two gifts or do they say "merry christmas" too?
 
Pat - does your royal gramma swim out and about like that frequently?

I find mine to be shy and timid - hiding most of the time except when I come walking by (and it thinks food is coming).
 
The one I just showed the picture of has been swimming out and about since we got a lot of rock out of the tank. Before that, he used to sit and peek out from under this one rock. His name is Jack. If we went anywhere near the tank, he'd dart back into his rock. I think he likes the freedom now. Actually, I think they all do. I even saw the clowns on the other side of the tank today, and they hardly ever went away from their side of the tank.

The one in my tank has always been out and about. He's been sold and will be leaving on Saturday.
 
Thanks everyone.

I don't usually get combined gifts but I normally don't get much anyway. I just assume forget about it anyway.

I will say this my parents got me something different for my B-Day. My Mom found this eco-sphere on the internet and got me one. It is a self contained glass ball with some shrimp, algea, gravel and a gorgonia. It is all self contained and you dont have to do anything but give it light. It is completely self sustaining. Here is the website www.eco-sphere.com. They are alittle pricey though.
 
Pat, love the pic of the foxface. He looks like he is saying 'put down that darn camera already and get me some food.' :)
My royal gramma was shy for the first couple of weeks. Then she was out and about all the time.

Is there a way to tell the sex of the gramma? (or the foxface for that matter too) I might have to change it's name to Jackie....if it's not a Jack. The only one I know for sure is the swallowtail. The male looks much different from the female.
 
My wife's is the 27th so she gets the combined presents too.

It's listed in his profile.
Mine is the day after Christmas, so sometimes I get combined gifts.
 
Well, I found a worm in the tank today. Wouldn't you know, it was in an area that the acrylic needs to be cleaned on the tank and I couldn't get a real closeup of it. :p
I do find that I have to be straight on taking pictures with the acrylic tank, otherwise they come out all distorted looking.

Yay! I just ordered my package!!! :)
Did you speak with anyone to see if they've been diving?

What size pkg?
 
I've got a call into them to see how the conditions are right now, but I'm not sure whether they've been diving or not. It just feels good to be ready! It's a 50 gallon package - I'll see if I can't get a pic up here.
