Gr@nd Fin@Le for today....remember the sea squirt I bought last friday? I got it grey...then it turned slightly blue...and today it is....YELLOW!

[FuEl]

$12 certainly worth it for such cool specimens...wonder if they will turn into another color... Ugly "duckling" turn into "swan"..

Your blue coral banded shrimp reminds me of mine which went MIA. Has to be the crabs, mine was feeding well and with me for around 1week before this happened.

Anyway its a nice looking shrimp you have there, i personally like this as well.

Got this cutie today...hehe..dun see it around often..translucent body..can see its vertebrae.. Has high dorsal fin too...like that of a yashia...the closet I.D i could get on it was Velenciennea puellaris but I don't think it is..it doesnt shift sand..

[Terryz_]

Nice fellow... Cute too... Dun think it shift sand...

[FuEl]

I searched fishbase.org already..all the species under Velenciennea genus don't fit it...think its in another genus...anyone can help to I.D?

[FuEl]

No need already..many thanks to Michael Young. ...it's been identified as Ctenogobiops tangaroai.

[FuEl]

Hey Fuel, you into gobies right? I saw some over at the LFS at Ginza... he labelled it shoe goby... everytime it stopped swimming it opened up its black fins which looks like a shoe and rested on the sand bed... quite interesting..

Tot you might want to know...

[FuEl]

Huh..never hear of shoe goby before..hmm..Ginza plaza too far lah..I live in east area one.. Sounds like crab-eye goby though..they also have black pelvic fins. Thanks anyway!

[FuEl]

Some updates..my periclemes cleaner gotten from PR some days ago. The smaller male got snapped upon by my pipefish who thought it was mysis coz it was slightly opaque. While it was in a daze, my pistol came along and finished it off with a few clicks...oh well..only left with 1..

[FuEl]

Spot the fish?

[Terryz_]

Eviota feeding anot...

[FuEl]

2nd eviota. Resting on grade 3 sand.

[FuEl]

Was relieved that someone told me this acro was coloring up...I thought it was slowly bleaching..

[DeepBlue]

[Terryz_]

Think this batch is much bigger liao than the last batch...
