I love your kitten!
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Time for a little up-date!

Loekie is still with MarcR.. But the marine tank is almoust ready ( exapt the licht unit, that's waiting till i've got a little more money :) )
Lilo and Mini are still friends and Abu is still a bit scary, even with an mirror against the tank. Mini doesn't like that mirror, he get's verry mad when he sees himself :P So cute :lol:

But some pics.. of my beautiful tank.. i still hear people "you can't get an marine tank with a very small budget" "When you haven't the right stuff the tank won't be stabiel".. puh, i proof them wrong! :) ( i think )

Image

Image

Image

No idea what this is..from an other tank keeper.. It was broken and he thought it would last in my tank..so it's in my tank, and it looks fine! Every day it looks a bit greener! (?)

Spongebob! ;)

Do you have to feed those mushrooms and anemone's? This is the direction I'd like to take my puffer tank.

No idea that you called the Discosoma striata mushrooms.. Now i understand what some people ment in an other topic :)

But no, not the 'mushrooms', the anemone get's a little piece of shrimp or other food that i also give mine GSP's once in the 2 weeks :)
