Ha ha sweet aptasia demise!

Sadly a month ago my goby went carpet diving.

So the time came to replace him and due to a growing number of aptasia I decided on a CBB. However for the past two and a half weeks he has not touched a single one. After his first day with a powerhead incident and his shy nature I was beginning to doubt that he ever would.

Tonight I was doing a WC and saw him going to town on the little ****ers! I cant tell you how happy I am. He's been mowing them down like crazy now. So now I'm just drinking my Bass and enjoying the show.

I had a Copperband also and he eradicated all aptesia in my 210. It took him some time to get started but once he did it was gone quickly. Unfortunately he vanished a few weeks ago. What a great fish. No aptesia came back after his demise.
