really appreciated Garage--esp when you have contributed so much to the MSX blog

http://www.reefcentral.com/wp/?p=294


I should add--I have tried really hard to use information from RC reefers and give credit where appropriate plus use their pics of fish and equipment etc.

If I have missed giving credit where credit is due--please leave me a message on the comment section of the blog in question
thanks
Scott

Last night for appitizers was a plate of raw oysters, one of my favorite foods.

(Well this post is about marine animals)

I am always horney------er hungry.
That C section of a pregnant fish is not that exciting.
I have always performed autopsys on fish that die from wierd circumatances.
I knew why the gobi died but she looked too fat to just be pregnant and I wanted to see if anything else was going on.
I think some of the eggs, or another organ was infected but I could not find the problem. The organs looked healthy but by the time I got the fish out it was slightly deflated so I know something was producing some gas. It diden't smell bad and I diden't have time do do a proper investigation so I will never know for sure.
Eggs on a fish like that will always be infertile, they get fertilized after they are laid.
It was not a big deal and it is normal for larger fish to eat smaller fish.
I will catch the engineer and replace the gobies.

Happy Veterans Day
