My Kole Tang seems to be looking a bit thin.


My Blood Shrimp hanging out on his favorite rock.



My Acro branch. The color has turned from torquois to a darker almost purple, except the growth tip which is still bright blue.


Purple Rock anyone?


Some polyps looking good.


And the full tank shot.

    The colour on the kole is excellent, the purple is beautiful.

    He does look a bit then, but that picture is much better than the first pic of him you posted

    Your tank looks good, Phil. I'd put a black background on it if I were you. It'll make a big difference. Lots of shrooms, though...

    Thanks. And yes, lots of shrooms. They're slowly disappearing, but if you'd like some I'm sure I could spare a few. And the black background is on the to-do list, but then, the 75 gal upgrade is still planned for next summer.

    Unfortunately, since I took these photos the Kole tang took a definite turn for the worse. In just a few days he got much skinnier looking, and yesterday afternoon I found he'd expired. He'd hardly ever touched any prepared foods since day 1, and I was hoping it was because there was enough natural food for him. He was constantly picking at the rocks and glass after all. But now I'm afraid he either couldn't adapt to prepared foods, or had an intestinal parisite or other illness.
