Well, it's 12/20/03 and things have changed a little since I last updated. I've added a Cherub Angelfish, and Spotted Hawkfish. Both are doing awesome and love Spirulina Flakes and Brine Shrimp, along with the Yellow Tang. I finally ordered my lighting system this week (patience or procrastination?) and it should be here by Christmas. I also added two giant Turbo Snails, but one has already fell prey to the hermit crabs. I am planning on buying an Algae Magnet soon. Although I've never had a big problem with algae (ever) I have had minimal diatom algae on the glass recently, and I also had what I think might be pod growth actually on my glass? I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing, but I don't really like it on the glass. Another issue that's been pleasing is that my Hawkfish has actually befriended my cleaner shrimp. Instead of chasing it like prey, he actually allows it to clean him! What a match! In the near future, after I install my lighting, I am planning on adding a few soft corals, maybe some shrooms and a leather or two- and hopefully then I can look toward a skimmer! (phew! all the money!)
