Pretty sure I saw empty shells in TAC when I was there today.

 

[weezawoo]

Haha I went there today and was proper annoyed with them, ended up going maidenhead wwas hoping you hadn't gone in there today as Mark wasn't in when I went in and hes the man! haha! How did you find it? I don't wanna show my face in there now I have bought hermits somewhere else lol!

 

[TheHolding]

Ha ha I bought my hermits from Maidenhead!

Was the blonde guy there? Did you see the flame angels?

I spent quite a bit of money today lol

 

[weezawoo]

Oooo gunna have to see what you got? What did you think of TAC then?

Yeh blonde guy, the one in charge of fish at weekends! He is great! Always was good with the trops I bought there. He did a full test of everything for free which I couldnt believe!

I was looking at all their fish, might get my clowns from them actually, they were tiny and will be so lost in my tank haha

Seffie, pics in my journal now

I got a pair of clowns and 3 pyjama cardinals - they gave me a discount on the cardinals

Don't get the smaller clowns from Maidenhead I got a beautiful pair from them, they get tmc bread ones every now an then which are superb (worth the wait).

I bought a pair from them but one sadly died from my marine ich debacle hence why I bought a fresh pair today to go with the lonely one (these were beautiful too).

The clowns were listed as percula but they were ocellaris (what i wanted anyway).

They are all in QT now but I can't wait to add them to the tank to watch the clown hierarchy kick off

Got a big one which must be female.

Nice shop bare in mind though they run copper in their water so do not add any of the water to your tanks.

 

[weezawoo]

Did you get the clowns from TAC then? Do you know who you spoke to? Is it TAC you mean have copper in their water? wasn't aware of that!
I try not to add any water from any purchase in my freshwater so wasn't sure how it worked with salt but guessed the same!

I won't be getting my clowns until begining of July most likely because they are going to be a birthday present and I still have a little LR to come. I will check both places out to see what they have!

 

[TheHolding]

Yes got the clowns today from TAC.

My previous pair were from Maidenhead.

Not sure what the guys name was if I'm honest.

Yes TAC have copper in water he told me this.

I have a QT now any how as I learnt a valuable lesson

 

[weezawoo]

fair enough! Paul is good, quite a stern chap, there was a random guy I didn't know quite old and weird looking haha and then mark who is just great! Might have been mark, its his shop so he could give d/c

All my cuc are now in the tank

 

[TheHolding]

It may have been Mark.

I will take some pics of the fish later for you to see

 

[weezawoo]

Yes please do! Did you check out the corals?

All fish together in QT -

Apologise for the poor quality photos

 

[weezawoo]

Lovely clowns but can't believe you got those pjs! I was watching them the other day and they are just so strange, haha! Couldn't figure out if I liked them or not

Have you got any pics of your main tank? Didn't see if you had a journal or anything?

 

[TheHolding]

Yup I was the same with the pjs didn't know if I liked them or not at first but got to admit they have grown on me ever since I saw them at the marine aquarium in Plymouth

Main tank -

No corals I'm afraid - due to naughty puffer!

May try some softs a bit later!

Will be getting some Tongan Branch Rock next
