heh heh, no problem.
Australian Labradoodle.

The Australian ones are different than the USA doodles. The usa ones are bred lab to poodle, but the aussie ones are bred labradoodle to labradoodle and they are trying to become their own breed. I believe there is also some spaniel in there.

I see a tang swimming around. Looks like a scorpas tang. Are you having better luck with this one? (knock on wood). What did you end up buying to feed the lil guy?

Yup, he's doing good! I've got like 6 different kinds of food now plus the green nori! So he's eating pretty good. :D
Flakes, pellets, frozen...
In fact just the weekend i even added a kole tang. So hopefully i have enough variety in food and my tang troubles are over.

Your tank is aquarium porn to me. I can look at the pictures for hours. Very well done!

have you had any issues with the tank or the seals?
Nope, no problems at all. If I did I think my pics would be much different. :wink:
Why do you ask?

Ok, well it's coming up on a year.
But there was no reason to expect my tank to have any problems.

Because I have yet to put a drop of water in mine. Yours has been the experiment.

Kyle did great work but man your tank looked like a mess. I don't know what happened there. You should've inspected the tank before you paid.

Actually those are NEW sponges and they are dying off too. I just can't keep'em alive! But even Richard at TBS says it's rare to keep them long term and mostly you just enjoy them while you can. But its a year this month now that the tank got wet and the yellow finger sponge (well it covers itself in a brown film but underneath it was yellow when i got) is still alive.

Other things that are still alive at the tanks one year birthday are one of my two flame scallops, all 3 starfish (brown brittle, purple serpent, and the big orange star), 3 of my 4 cucumbers, the purple pincushion urchin and two black short spine urchins which arrived as tiny little babies and are now getting pretty big. Snails and hermits are too hard to keep track of but i still have a bunch. So not too shabby, and even cooler is that all these creatures are still there even after that week of water temps being about 89 degrees when the A/C went out this past June while we were on vacation.
