Past Friday we got a call that our ordered Firefish had arrived. When I was there to pick it up we also found that they had a bunch of peppermint shrimps, so we also bought 2 of them. One has eggs, so I’m curious how that will go and if they survive. But our main hope is that these two survive longer and will kill the Sea Anemones.

We tried killing the Sea Anemones again with boiling water, just like we tried to kill the Majano Anemones. We got a couple of Sea Anemones and one Majano Anemone. Still too many left unfortunately.


The Salarias has some problems with all the changes and things that took place. He stayed underneath a rock the whole weekend and was breathing quickly. Guess we need to give the aquarium a bit of a break again.


And then we have our newest Coral, one we didn’t expect but was suddenly there underneath a rock which has been in the aquarium since the early start. My guess is that he detached from the latest Kenya tree. It had a bubble on it like the oldest one, back then I asked and someone said it was splitting. Then it didn’t seem to have happened, this time it probably did.


The striped mushroom is still present, but I'm trying to make it attach to a small rock to add a little weight. It kept blowing all around the aquarium. The Dark Red/Brown mushrooms are all out of sight except for 1. Still have to think of a good method to attach mushrooms.
