Stuck at home, some fish pictures

Great pictures again Todd!! Sorry for you losing the golden dwarf, it looks gorgeous.

So when you coming over to take pictures of my tank? 9 months out sound good? :lol:

Thanks. One day I would like to get another Golden, but running out of room.

Ha, but I will be up there over the next year for a wedding -- my sister and my mom's side of the family all live up there.
 
Maybe you should let me know when you will be around, you could give me pointers on the tank.

Save room for another golden now that you don't have the handdoni. Well you still have LTA's, but they aren't as bad as the S. handdoni's are.
 
Will have to find out when the wedding is, hopefully it will be when the Twins are in town.

I still have one haddoni, but no clowns in that tank (( the 65 with the Flame, Coral Beauty and Multicolored )), but think I would have to set up another tank if I wanted a Golden.
 
sorry to hear your loss....a settled golden dwarf is really a prized possession...at least i think...

Thanks. Yeah, it really sucked, and that caused me to sell that pair of clowns. It was amazing, right after selling them, the other fish weren't hanging out by the S. haddoni anymore -- since there are no more clowns to chase, just a porcelain crab.
 
Great pictures, as usual. Sorry if you said this already, but where did you get the Potter's? I had a great one a few years ago, but lost it in a heat wave while I was out of town.

Sorry to hear about your bad day. Take care of yourself and don't overdo it!
 
Thanks Robin -- what sucks is that (( for once )) I didn't over do it. PT did manage to get the pain down from a 7 out of 10 to around 5.

I picked up this Potter's about a week ago from the Diver's Den section of LA. I was really happy to see it eating prepared food when it was in the acclimation box, and it still eating well now that it is in the main tank. It does freak out a bit when all the fish start eating, but it is getting enough. Also, I am glad that it is getting along so well with the blue dwarf.

One nice thing about the new place it is easier to keep the temps in check for my tanks. Plus, this one is in the "English" basement, so I am able to keep it from 74-78, which should be better for the Potters.
 
Thanks a lot Dave.

Just finished uploading some pictures from the 75. Was able to do one water change for that tank -- but the viral infection or wound infection that I had really slowed me down. It was basically 2 weeks of feeling "off" and a fairly constant low fever.
Slowly starting to feel better, and even went to work this week -- wow did that hurt. Going to be stupid and see a band play on Saturday night -- the Smoking Popes;

Anyways, onto some pictures (( will be 2 posts worth ))

This is the only one that I could get of my lawnmower blenny, for as much as it is out you would think I would be able to get a decent shot -- he eats well :)

Some close ups of my orange skunk (( A. sandaracinos )) pair -- in the late afternoon the sun hits the tank, love the look.

One shot of my blue spotted puffer (( Canthigaster papua )) -- the darn thing will eat out of my hand (( and bit me )) and yet runs like a wimp the second the camera comes out, so this is the best I could do.

And now onto the 2 dwarf angels, a Potter and my not officially named blue dwarf. Some minor chasing when I released the Potter's (( was in an acclimation box for 5 days )), but now they really don't care about each other. The Potter's is eating really really well -- love DD fish.

Now my boy blue (( watch Old School tonight )) -- have had it for about a year now, great fish, though it does like to pick at my urchin (( need to get a picture of that )). Really like when the sun hits it, really shows the colors well.
