I found the best time of night to photograph the male, is dusk.

This is around the time he starts strutting and displaying to the female.

If you cannot get piccies, how about a video, I sit on the floor in front of the tank and wait for them to appear. Although mine are on view most of the time.

I dont think i have anything to take a video with tbh tina,

This little guy is giving me a proper headache (juv,clown wrasse)
as soon as i have fed my scolys he takes the food straight away
i had 1 once before which was 6-7" long and was a model citezen
never touched a thing,and i had the stupid notion that this guy would be the same,but wouldnt you know it turned out to be a right pita
still only got myself to blame should know better tbh
heres a pic

Liking that Symphyllia alot ;_00

My mandarins must just be posers then :-:eek:

The symphyllia is a beauty,under leds its blue and green
which really stands out,its my centrepiece and will need something special to come along to make me change that.
I think yours must be tina..

Some more great stock Rich . I'm liking that Goby :--

Hi scott these goby's are great,i would recommended them to anyone
they get on with every other fish no probs at all
and look stunning to boot,i've had these in with rainfords before there almost identical twin, without
any trouble they have a slightly different colour pattern but stunning all the same

That is really nice.

Been looking at them for a while now.

Would get lynched if I spent that on one coral atm.

Will put that on a list for things to get later, But I WANT one :-(
