    Monthly Archives for April 2008

    It was a very good month. Dig in. Every entry is a classic.

    Top Selection | Baros’ Reef

    Welcome Luca and Marie

    Update: So far the fish are doing well. Marie, the C. Collare has a little lympho.

We contacted LiveAquaria and they could not tell us what foods she was eating. [...]

They would work great as a bolt [...]

    Chaetodon declivis and Chaetodon collare

    We ordered these two today from Liveaquaria’s Diver’s Den. They should arrive Tuesday!Update: They have arrived and are eating. In the first 5 seconds of being introduced the Collare took a taste of a Montipora and Acropora… She’s beautiful though and we will definitely be keeping her. The Declivis is doing well, but may have [...]
