So now I have this 90 gallon tank, and we are looking at setting it up as a reef tank. Denzil recently got super interested in corals, and instead of raising his eyebrows asking me how much money I was spending, his questions turned to "are you sure you have everything you need?" LoL, but I think I may wait a while before getting another puffer. Right now, I have my sweet faced Luau, who's getting ginormus, and my little pee wee PZ to give me my puffer fix. I have decided that if I do a SW Puffer again, I am going to go balls out, huge tank, huge refugium, all the equipment in the sump and not worry about curious puffers sticking their faces in pumps anymore.
Also getting ready to go on vacation, so hopefully everyone will be OK. Finally got all my tanks on timers, and OMG, I should have done it sooner. I can't believe I dragged my feet so long on getting them. It's been wonderful, and my fish sure are happier having a set day and night time. It was hard when going to school because my schedule was so vastly different, now, I don't have to worry about it ^.^
So, I am still here, but one puffer short. Luau is probably 2 inches right now and growing, and with his huge tank, I put some ghost shrimp in there and he just adores it when I do. Keeps him busy for days. They clean up all his left overs, and eat some veggie wafers, while he gets everything they eat when he finally catches one. Some might think that it is mean, but I just can't catch them with a pair of tweezers and hold on to them and let him pick at them. LoL, at least in the tank, they can try to get away from him. And he's getting so big that once he catches them, he leaves nothing behind. In about three bites, they are gone. Denzil and I love watching him, and he's definitely grown on Denzil-- Denzil tells people "this is the cute little puffer I helped save." Haha.
Hope all is well with you guys! Pretty soon I will get some updated pics, hopefully after I get the 90 set up. I am 99% there, but the damn bulkheads keep dripping water. Gotta flip the tank and give them another turn or so again. Hopefully by tonight though, it will be in it's spot in the living room, and have water in it to give it a final leak test.
