Lemon's tank!

[yikai]

yah the choati v beautiful. expensive taste though! prefer's market prawns to mysis

here's a FTS. never update FTS in awhile. still the same as usual. overflow box still exposed.....

thinking of live-rocking up thate area. but there will be some concerns if i do.

no 1) no space for betta box

no 2) the brain corals on the sand below the overflow will be homeless

i actually kinda like that exposed area. some of my fishes like hanging out there as there is open space for them to swim. and my mandarin gets to eat pellets there as they settle down at the sand bed there. so i'm likely to leave it like this for now.

: ) your tank full of different wrasse soon? Wrasse collection!!!

yep yep. glad someone noticed haha.

so far, collection consists of

- Paracheilinus Lineopunctatus. ( sorry i dunno the common name for this. but looking at the latin name.. lineo and punctatus, i'm thinking line-dot flasher wrasse?)

- Yellow wrasse -.-

- choati leopard

- splendid leopard

- exquisite wrasse

- flame wrasse

unfortunately, the rhomboid did not make it so far this shipment rhomboid....most of them didnt make it. t.t

Yes i also got a pair of rhomboid from this batch and the female died after 1 day but lucky the male make it. Rhomboids if not handled well during shipping the whole batch can be v fragile. Plus it's an expensive fish, wat a costly risk.

BTW, v nice tank and v nice chaoti.

some video shots of my flasher wrasse flashing. he goes from a dull red to a bright lavender. fins goes from red to blue, to white.

[yikai]

[LaW]

very nice. try taking with main lights on, i want to see its color under it.

very nice. try taking with main lights on, i want to see its color under it.

problem is he only flashes at such prolonged lengths of time like this only when the actinics are on. dawn and dusk. when main tank lights on, its too short to video. and he always stops flashing when i get the cam! colour changes from dull red to bright streaks of blue on his cheecks, dorsal and belly. then his fins just goes crazy..

anyway, this is the exact same species as mine. P.lineopunctatus. found it on the website. it looks just like this.
