No offense taken. PrincessBB is now in bed and princessCoral is just off in a minute - both are excited about their new tank and thought it was very funny keeping a secret!

Now I really am very impressed if you have done all of that without Seffie and Trod.

Seffie, seems she is a real credit you and has done her research.

Well done.

I thought you mum had guided you because of the equipment, the smaller version of your mom and aunties protein skimmer for instance.

You really have an eye for the aquascaping too.

Let us know your plans and wants as yet find them, we will all be really happy to help.

Night night you two princessbb and princesscoral.
Sleep tight, let the dreams of fishkeeping begin!

Good evening well early morning lol.

ok i have tryed to take a picture of one of the little things we have found in our tank. the pictures are not very good, as it kept going fuzzy. anyway we are really not sure what this is, could it be a snail or a slug? what does everyone think? it has a yeallow body and this white looking soft shell but it is not hard! so not sure.

 

[TigerIssey]

It looks like some kind of Stomatella to me. Do a google search and have a look at some pics.

Your tank looks really nice, cant wait to see some fishies in there.

Can I say also, what a lovely close family you all are, I bet christmas is fun! lol

 

[zipzap]

Hi marine brother.

Well we are still quite unsure on what we want as myself and Mr zipzap want different fish. and we are still looking around to see what fish go with each other. but so far we would like -

2 common clowns
Flame Angelfish
A puffer fish, i have one in mind that i have seen but i need to go back and ask what it is called as i cant remember
i would love a dragon wrasse, but we wont be getting one as there very hard to look after.
but we do really love the psychedelic mandarin dragonets. witch we would love to get.

But as you can see we are still very unsure and need as much help as we can on this. there are others we like but want to make sure that all the fish we get will go and be happy living along side to each other.

also not forgetting some more snails, crabs and shrimps which Mr zipzag like the fire,blood, cleaner shrimp. plus i would like a star fish.

I have just got our mushroom polyps there is 7 of them all different colours there is a really lovely blue/green hehehehe cant wait for Mr zipzap to see them!

Thanks! Yes xmas is great

I take it your going for a reef tank then?
Well, unfortunatly I think all puffers are non reef safe, althought I could be wrong.
Mandarins are quite hard to keep aswell, as they are hard to feed.
Im not sure if the flame angelfish is reef safe also, as I know a few angels are not.
Also the Cleaner Shrimp are known for taking food from corals mouths when feeding.
Some of that information could be wrong, but sombody will let you know ASAP.

Hi marine brother.

make sure you get two small juvies

Flame Angelfish

flameback angel, sweet fish that should be fine with corals

A puffer fish, i have one in mind that i have seen but i need to go back and ask what it is called as i cant remember

The only reef safe puffer is the valentini puffer or the blue spot toby, you could have either as long as you are happy to sacrafice your small snails - they shouldn't take any shrimps as long as the shrimps are in first and large

i would love a dragon wrasse, but we wont be getting one as there very hard to look after.

Not so hard to look after, just ugly and a pain in the butt when they get older and too big for your tank

but we do really love the psychedelic mandarin dragonets. which would would love to get.

not until your tank is older and you are cultivating your own pods, but it is do-able

But as you can see we are still very unsure and need as much help as we can on this. there are others we like but want to make sure that all the fish we get will go and be happy living along side to each other.

the only star fish suitable for your tank is a sand sifting star. I wouldn't put a blood shrimp in with the normal cleaner, have one or the other. The blood will hide and not bother corals, the cleaner will not hide but walk all over corals and annoy them

I have just got our mushroom polyps there is 7 of them all different colours there is really lovely blue/green

Sounds nice, are they mushrooms or zoas?
