Hello everyone! Nice to meet you, we are Amanda and Todd, and we live on the gulf coast of florida. We have a 150 gallon reef/local tank with a 30 gallon refugium. Our list of inhabitants is long, as we find neat stuff in the gulf all the time. Store bought we have 2 ocellaris clowns, a mated pair of mandarins, a six line wrass who is oddly best friends with a pygmy cherub angel
(they are together in the pic), a fire fish (his mate died, attack of the bubble tip
) a spotted watchman, which has refused to pair with our mated pair of local snapping shrimp (grr), and polyps of several types, purple and red mushrooms, and the afore mentioned bubble tip. Some of the more notable locals are a small flounder, several gobies, a tube anemone, two types of sea slugs, but one is too small to photograph. This one is a Oxynoe antillarum
I don't know what type the others are, they are small, whitish clear, with pink and blue on one, and purple and orange on the other. Classic nudibranch appearance with antanee and appendage in the back. We have local porcelain crabs, fighting conch, a wonderfully colored fighting conch shell with some form of local coral on it
We get tons of local tiny hermits and ceriths, as well as some other neat little snails, clams, oysters (they spawned, it was gross), feather dusters, glass shrimp, very small sea cucumbers, they are soft and translucent, small rock crabs that remind me of emeralds, and they stay small, hmmmmmm........
Local starfish feasting on a new local rock, they will have it clean in a week.
