A Few Salty photos

[Navarre]

Here are a few of my Marine fish.

Hope you like them, I will try and collect a few more of them and my tank if you are interested.

This is my Hectors Goby. He is a tiny little thing but got lots of character! He keeps near the bottom all day long taking little mouthfuls of sand and chewing on the grains. Helps keep the sand clean!

This is my Asfur Angel. The photo really doesnt do it justice! I will endevuor to get a better photo to show you the true beauty of this Angelfish

My Dot Dash Blenny.
He loves the Clam and will sit there watching the world go by for hours. The clam doesnt seem to mind either!

"Ming the Merciless"... My Emperor Tang

When i first introduced my Asfur, Ming was out to gut it! (They aint called surgeonfish for nothing and for the first timei saw it try to use those blade! ).
I was expecting trouble to be honest as they are close in size and colour markings etc. Ming would nt tollerate the Asfur at all.
I managed to catch Ming quite easily and put him into Solitary confinments for a week (Sumped him).
When he was added back there was no argueing and now they actually swim aruond the tank together like they have always been friends! Who would beleive it!

My Flame Angel.
Sadly I lost it recently due to a crab attack whilst it was stuck between rocks.
Angels have spines on their gills and as it passed through a tight spot in the rocks it got its gills stuck on the rockwork. The crab was fast and before i could get into the rocks to save it, the crab had killed it The crab is now in a tank where it cant do any more harm )

Lemonpeel Angel.
I recently gave this to a friend as it decided to take a fancy to my Hard Corals.
A gorgeous fish but the corals are far too expensive for it to dine on everynight!

Well thats it for now. Im working on more photos over the next few days so if you would like to see more of my reef then I will see what i can do.

Thanks for viewing.

OK then. as requested...
Tank shots and more fish

Here are some full tank shots.

Unfortunately you cant see the corals on the rocks as they are still very small. I will try and get some coroal photos later this week. The tank has been running since may 2004 but alot of stock has come from a smaller system that was running since sept 2003



And a few more of my fish...

Another of my Emperor tang on patrol

Often overlooked but the tank wouldnt be the same without him! a real character and hard working little devil!
My trusty Algae Blenny

My 2 Clowns with their Branching Hammer Coral.
I do have an Anemone in my tank but they dont want to know it! They love the Hammer instead.... Just goes to prove, Clown DONT need a nenny to be happy

This is my small Bubble tip Anemone.
I gotit free ona bit of liverock. Soon after purchsing the rock it appeared outof a crevice. I first thought it might be a Majanoe (pest species) but its steadily grown and i am pretty sure now tahts its a Bubble tip.
I dont advocate keeping Nennies as they are very very hard to keep but ths one seems happy where he is. The moment it looks a little unhealthy or outgrows the tank i will rehouse it with a local marine center.

My Gorgeous Wattanabae Angel (Female) I had a pair but lost the male soon after their introduction due to swim bladder problems. These angels suffer from this as they are deeper water angels and sometimes get brought to the surface too quickly

Purple Mask Angel
I got this due to an error by my Local Fish shop. I had been asking them to get me an Asfur for ages and they were having real trouble locating one for me. Evenetually they told me they had one but when i went to collect it I found they had been sent a "Purple Mask angel" rather than a "Purple Moon Angel" (their common name)
It was a gorgeous fish all the same so i simply had to get it! They are difficult to get feeding so im told but this noe is a greedy little devil!

Well.. Thats about all i have for the moment. I will ty and get some coral photos next. I would like to show some comparisons on colourations since they have been added to the tank.
Give me a few days
