Not much from the beginning. My temp is run by a Ranco. Have a different ATO. I'm gonna start with my kalk reactor, but add my cal/rx later. It will be nice to monitor things from an ipad though. As the tank matures, I'll start adding though. Maybe I can get it to control my wife.

So, I knew there was some kind of shrimp in the tub. I saw some of it today.



I'm gonna put a trap in the tub for now. Although I may keep him. I had an ugly gray one I kept in a 5 gallon for about 5 years. He was great to watch, but without color, it was ugly. We'll see.

Pretty sure you have a wennerae if it came from the rock I sent you....they change colors....usually start out drab army green.....then turn red......then a light lime green color after a while in the tank..color depends on lighting.....pretty cool critters...

So I know it's been a while, but life always gets in the way. No pics of the tank yet, but things are running pretty well. There were a few frags in it, and a few weeks back, things started disappearing. I knew about the mantis, but I didn't think him capable of the damage. I was right.

So today I took the crab into my office. The girls fell in love with him. Then I stuck him on the table in my shop. Went to lunch. When I got back, I went in and told the guy I work with I changed my mind, I'm gonna keep him. He said cool, and he named him while I was at lunch. First, The Crab Shack.



Dudley seems happy.

Are you sure that's happy? Looks a little more like vengeful to me. Is it a gorilla crab? I didn't realize they were that colorful.

So today I went to the grocery store to look for something for it to eat. Best thing I could find was cooked salad shrimp. They were the smallest thing they had, an most stuff had additives. Took one shrimp out of the bag, thawed it out under cold water and stuck it on a wooden skewer. I pushed it about three inches up and stuck it in the sand. It went right after it and ripped it off the skewer. It took it back to it's corner and hasn't let go of it.

Pretty cool.
