add to cart: highfin perchlet + misc zoos + yellow gorgonian + blue photo sponge

picked up a gorgeous yellow gorgoinian and some cb tubbs + ked reds + pink zoos @ barrier to add some color back into our languishing tank... came with some green palys that brad's not too fond of so i fragged them off for a lucky recipient i have yet to find/identify. also, scored an atypical photosynthetic blue sponge + a highfin perchlet @ denny's pet up in totem lake.


more info on the highfin perchlet here: http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=15+20+1917&pcatid=1917




















i was having one hell of a time trying to get a picture of the pink zoos so here's a better example of what they look like i found off the internet:

mb50g is going azoox!

we picked up couple more gorgonians recently and a black sun coral @ seamax this past weekend.



i've made the decision to transition over to azoox since we've had really shitty luck keeping sps, but do really well keeping lps and non-photosynthetic colonies. i've got my eye on a few pieces over @ the live aquaria diver's den. hopefully, i'll get the sponges, tunicates and spiral wires i've always wanted. cross your fingys! :)

i flooded our utility room this weekend!

we ended up leaving the water running for HOURS, which ended up totally flooding our utility room space.  we had to cut out drywall + pull out soggy insulation, but luckily we caught it before it could do some real damage.  it's drying out as we speak.  moral to the story is = don't by-pass the auto-shut-off switch!  :)  anyhow, here's some hi-res pix brad took over the weekend... enjoy!
