Hey Guys,
If you've seen my tank you know I don't quite strive for the minimalistic approach. I got lots of rock, lots of corals and lots of fish.
My fish count is over 100 and been stable for quite awhile. I love the little fish and am always a sucker for something cute and tiny to add.
Before MACNA I came across some Eviota Gobies. These guys are tiny. The kind of fish that you would have to look for in a 5g Nano tank. But they were cute, and supposedly live in acro colonies and keep pests at bay. Given this fish is less than an inch and about as thick as a matchstick I only got a couple to try. My baby Bangai could eat them no problem.
So I acclimated them in the tank. Let them loose. They darted into the rock work and blink....Never seen again.
Last night I go walking by the tank, and holy crap one of them is sitting out in the corner of the tank!!!
So out came the camera, and yes I had to use the Macro Lens
So after 5 months unseen this little guy doesn't look too bad. Now to see if the second one shows up
I love that a healthy reef tank can support such a diversity of life. Now I have to control myself and not buy a dozen of these little guys.
While the camera was out I snapped a few other fish....
One of my trio of Multi-Bar
I have 2 different Springeri
One of another of my trios
And the leader of another trio
And the baby
