Some Updates:
- Only 2 Chromis remain from the group of 15. Counting the old ones there are now 5 in the tank.
- To balance, I ended up getting some fish (8 in total) that I wanted some time with the
Eco-Reef Ornamentals.
I took another pseudochromis sankeyi, to pair with my old one and probably to form a couple.
Also I got 2 fridmaniis, 1 Springerii and 4 gobys: 2 neons and 2 tigers.
None of them are fishes of open spaces.
The pseudochromis were allocated on the big island. All 5 are there and they're doing quite well together.
The neons are still a little lost ..... near the front glass, in the corner. I hope they meet a spot soon and move from there to some point on the rocks. I had a couple once and the behavior was pretty cool.
The tigers disappeared when they arrived and I still can not locate any of the 2 ...... Inconvenient of a tank too big ....
They are very small and almost transparent fish. I knew the chance of this happening was enormous but I wanted to risk it anyway because I think they are very interesting. I hope they'll get out of hiding and start moving around the tank. I know they have a behavior similar to neon gobies.
Despite this general demeanor, I got what I wanted that was to take a bustling in the tank, and create other points of attention.
I sold almost in sequence my colonies of milepora eletric green, tortuousa turquoise and yongei green.
They were too big and too difficult to fit into the layout. As one of my goals is to deviate from the original layout as little as possible, I preferred to sell them. But I kept seedlings of the yongei and the millepora and they're still in tank.
In contrast, I add new frags of chalice, lepastastrea and one of the last sps that must come: a purple solitariensis with very beautiful green tips.
No other significant loss or any other big change.
Now it's time to leave the tank quiet about 2 or 3 months ...
