Okay guys the reason for my long delay was that I tore a tendon in elbow and was in a brace for 4 months. During this time I didnt get a whole lot done. Sadly I had left my house for a few days and had someone take care of the tanks and when I came back the Clown Trigger had completely disappeared, never found a body, and then I found the grouper, after about two months of eating like a champ, dead. I then began to loose interest because of the sudden deaths and not being able to get many things done. I didnt even go to the LFS for a long period of time which was something I did at least once a week. But after a few weeks with out the brace I have regained interest in the hobby. And I even got a new tank mate for the lagoon. A male Cortez Stingray.

I got the ray over the weekend, and he has a healthy appetite for krill.

Have not gotten too many good pictures of him, but these were what I could get...

The Horn Shark has grown a lot in the past months. I bet he is almost 2 feet long so far.
