Thank you Richard!

Richard, you are generous as always! It's almost midnight here and I just finished getting all those critters acclimated and settled in.

My main display tank looks like a story book picture. Actually it looks like North North Dry Rocks at Pennecamp S.P. It's so amazing!

How should I put the feather duster in the tank? For now I placed it in a "channel" in one of the rocks and carefully put a smaller rock across the channel forming a tunnel of sorts to help it protect its body. I left the snail shell in place, too. Would it be happier buried in the sand at the base of a rock?

What is the big purple gorgonian looking soft coral? It was harboring a couple of tiny shrimp in it. I don't think they enjoyed the trip in the paper towels very much. Although they had perked up a bit by the time I left the shop.

The gobies love those plants that look like cedar bushes. They came out of the their rock to see about the new greenery and were still hopping around in the plants hours later.

I'll post photos tomorrow. For now I'm off to bed :sleep:

By the way, the smiley face you drew on the inside of the box made me laugh out loud.

Thank you again for all of the wonderful critters! :fish1:
 
Cool!

Cool!

Your welcome!

That weird looking gorgonian is a corky....from the Keys.....I sent you that one as it needs to be fragged .......and spread around your tanks.

It ships much better in wet paper towels than being underwater in a bag with 02......as most gorgonians do.

The feather duster, just lay in the sand, as he needs that to keep building his tube...

How much was the freight on the one box?
Was hoping they had come down on the fuel surcharges lately...

There's certainly enough of the Corky gorgonian to go around! A 4" piece had broken off and I did mount it in the nano mostly as an experiment, but now that I know I can frag it I will work on that this weekend.

Almost every rock now has its own clam! That big one with those 2 beautiful sponges on it fit right in to a somewhat empty spot. No longer empty now that's for sure!

Stinker did not care for the bags with the blennies in them. That silly fish actually would dart up and bite at the bag like the bossy thing it is. So those got spread around the tanks as well. I noticed one of them has a "spike" on its dorsal fin, and its face was a bit more pointed. Is it a blenny or something different like a basslet?

Shipping has gone down...I was charged 50.27 for this box. The last one was 64 and change.
