went out today and bought some clean up crew and a new coral for my nano, hopefully i'll have some luck this time.

-6 blue leg hermits(neatest little things i have ever seen

) after acclimating and putting them in the tank, after about 5 minutes or so, 1 of the hermits finds a shell that must have been mixed in with the crushed coral, flips it over a few times then after he's happy, plops himself out of the one shell and into the other, upon seeing this i couldn't stop feeling good or giggling and feeling that i had done something right.

1 cerith(sp?) snail

blue mushroom coral

wish me luck

oh yeah, just experienced the smell of a dead snail that had probably been sitting in my tank for a week or so while i was away in europe, so as soon as i found it, i did as any good fish owner would do, removed it, did a partial water change, everything looks alot better now. That tomato clown that i have is biting the hand that feeds him, i swear he nipped me about 20 times while putting the coral in

:P

I hope you like your newest additions. Ive smelled a dead snail a couple of times along with getting bit by my clown. I think I would take the getting bit part of the nasty smell of a dead snail anytime.
