do care to list the name of the fish in order with the fish those arre the coolest looking fish in the world. i'm not good enough at this to be able to look at fish and know what they are. but that white sand is awesome. where in the world did you get it? i have looked for something different like that around here when i first got my tank started.
My white sand??
I know it's going to be hard to believe, but I've been telling people to get this stuff over and over and over.
It's QuickCrete medium sized white sand. It's the stuff they mix with rock and concrete mix to make concrete. You but it at Home Depot...$3 for a 50lb bag. It doesnt cloud AT ALL. Every time I've put the sand in any tank, 2 minutes later, the tank is crystal clear. I love the stuff! I'll never use anything else.
That's what's in all of my tanks...the 200gal has some old aragonite sand mixed in, but it's mainly the QuikCrete stuff.
It stays so clean because of my hermits. The only hermits I could find, that could hold their own against the fish are 4" Red Legged Hermits. Although, I've lost 3 in the past month, to the Red Coris Wrasse. I started out with 10, at $8 a pop.

I'm trying to get rid of the Scopas and the Red Coris Wrasse.
I cant seem to find anyone to buy either. No one wants an 8" Red Coris Wrasse that will eat any invert it can find. And, no one wants the Scopas, cause not alot of people know what they are...they're not too common in my area.
I want to get rid of both so I can replace them with a Blue Dot Grouper.
A guy I know, from Canada, that's with me on www.grimreefers.com is coming down to Chicago and he may take the Scopas.
