cee, what is that last smoothskin pic? I need it!

I was bored with all the rain and took some pics as well, I'll post here in a second.

A maricultured A. lokani I colored up under LEDs. One of those I bought "sight unseen" and wasn't even sure I would get the species I wanted.

Nice sticks in your tank BTW!

OK, posting this next one for a couple of reasons. My son's going to TTU in the fall and I need a new "reef home", so can I join MTRC even if I'll likely rarely make a meeting? Other reason is I'll now be at 1500 aimless posts LOL.

cee, you can join MTRC if you frag me a piece of the lokani one day.:angel: We have plenty of members that dont make hardly any meetings, but you have discounts at our LFS's and full access to the MTRC FS/Trade threads.

BTW, that undata pic is actually a piece of yours. I got it from Gary who lives in Clarksville, he got it from you when you broke down the larger tank a couple of years ago. It is now about 7"x8".

Glad to see it is still around. I got that piece from Matt Hopper in San Jose many, many years ago, OG Tyree undata.

I'll get you a frag after Rob but lokani is a sloooooow grower. I'll keep my eye out and join when you renew memberships.

Can someone PM me about the club or send me an active link. Everything online at I saw a while ago was ancient. Thanks, all.

Cee, what kind of fish is that in your post?

Chris,

Your photos look great. Those Chromis sure love to pose for the camera as well.

Never heard of them or saw one in person. Good looking fish. Thanks for sharing!

You won't ever see these at a LFS. Very rare and high end.

He wasn't bad, $70 maybe. They can be hard to find because they come from so deep and they do require patience and a quiet environment to properly acclimate to captive life. Now he's out all the time and seems quite happy (as happy as a fish in a box could be, I suppose).
