Wow! What an awesome tank. Just goes to show size doesn't matter.

I could but at some point in time I am going to move the tank and It will be viewed from three sides.

Its time to bring home a fish.
Today I brought home a Yasha goby.

Congratulations Bobby2! Those are absolutely stunningly beautiful fish. I almost bought one last week...feel in love with it as soon as I saw it. But, i resisted....maybe not for long!

I miss my Yasha that I had in my 24g. We had an extended 36 hour blackout in the winter, and despite my efforts the temp dropped to 70F(room temp was 55-60 F at night) and then the power finally came back on. I slowly raised the temp back up to 78F, and it seemed that everyone survived, except for a couple of Nassarius and my poor little Yasha.

Her Pistol Shrimp even survived, and has since been transferred (after removing all the 24g's LR to catch him) to the 55g where he is happy and lies in wait for his next symbiotic partner.

Not sure if I should try another Yasha or some other shrimp goby (like a Randalli).

I have been in love with them ever since I started the hobby. yesterday I brought home his pistol shrimp. .
the next fish I want to add is a golden assessor. They are sweet.

you'll have to let me know whether the pistol shrimp and the Yasha pair up. I've heard it's quite difficult to get them to pair up, if they weren't captured together. I'll be interested to hear your success story....

pictures!!!!

they seemed to pair up instantly.
my rep told me to trap the shrimp under a glass and the goby would find it and he did with in 30 seconds of being in the tank. the shrimp was supposed to dig its way out of the glass and into his new home. but what happened was the yasha some how got into the glass. (I was watching House so I missed it) I eventually let them go in the tank where unfortunaly they burrowed a home somewhere where I cant see them. one more reason I need to move my tank so I can view it from 3 sides.

pic update
the yasha and the pistol shrimp are a little camera shy.
I took me 30 min of holding the camera dead still to get these shots and they are not very good.
but I took a few other pic's to update everybody on how its doing.
