pics of the full tank. lots of dead mangroves, and one thats barely hanging on. I need to get a light, and then get a new batch, ones without roots already sprouted and I'll try it again.

the mudd skipper wil grow around five inches! how big is your tank, and is it brackish?

Thanks Emg, the gobies are in the barnacles once in a while, but they actually spend most of their time out cruising around.
The tank is a 40 breeder, and yes its brackish, SG of about 1.010-1.012 (hence being posted in the brackish area of the forum).

Very nice tank! I am going to get back into brackish now that I am done with college. I am going to set up a tank specifically for Anableps and probably have a few Skippies too. Is the top open? Beware cause they can climb walls pretty well. Anyway hope this helps and good luck!

I had one of the better local places order it. It took a few tries before they got it.
