Since the anemone died, my clownfish has been using the larger shaing brush algea's for a bed, quite weird since they normally use anemones. oh well, it looks like he like it in there so no point in ruining it.

The anemone died today, of unknown causes. The clownfish wasnt using it as a host anyways so its not such a big deal, but i think im going to refrain from buying anything new for at least another 6 months, unless I need some crabs or snails.

Went to the local LFS and picked up a small frag of pulsing xenia for 10buks, and securly attached it to a rock using soft wax. hopefully it will propogate and get really big so i can start fraggin it myself.

Returned the Blue Damsel yesterday, and they didnt get any peppermint shrimp in their shipment, so I guess I'm out of luck. While I was there though, I noticed they got alot of new stuff in, including some shaving brush algea, which does a great job of cleaning the nitrates and phosphates out of your tank. So I got 2 of those instead of the shrimp.

The Torch Coral I bought died completely, and the coral on the live rock is still doing really well. I have absolutely no idea why that coral is doing so good but not the other one. I also went to the LFS and got some replacement snails,crabs,and I also got a Green Chromis. I forgot to pick up replacement peppermint shrimp, so I might go back tomorow to give them the damsel and get the shrimp.

Well, today I woke up to find both of my shrimps dead. My main suspect, the Blue Damsel. He is very territorial and I have seen him attacking the shrimps and the clown quite a few times. so I am almost sure it is him. I talked to the guy at the LFS about it, and he said he would take it off me for a store credit, which is awfully nice of him since they normally do not take salt fish back at all, because of the risk of disease. So I think I'll do that in the next couple days before someone else dies.
