I finally switched out the netting on top of my tank...
This should be the end to all suicidal jumpers =) the squares are 1/4" compared to the old 3/4 stuff I had... (I Lost atleast 4 fish through the 3/4)

Did you get a new goby, or did one come back to life? Man, good luck. Those things are so hard to keep fed. They look like they are eating, but they just pass the food right through their gills. Eventually they just wither away and die. Hopefully your tank can support them. They make a beautiful pair.
Make sure you post your best pictures every month in our POTM forum.

Hey - Nice pics! What did you do with all of your critters while you were switching tanks? I want to get a bigger tank than my 75 gallons but it is so full of coral that I hate to give any of it up while I switch tanks.  Jody

Had to share a few pics of my new fish =) Its a Razor Goby... and with all the time Ive spent in pet stores over the last 10 years Ive never noticed or seen one of these before... until this one that I found at Aquatica ....


It is about 8 inches long and eats like a champ
I haven't seen a fish in a while with this much iridescence

Well I switched out my lights,  and finally have a metal halide over the center now!....=) Thanks again to the Aquarium for the hook up on these

I also picked up another mp40 over the weekend! The flow is seriously insane, but I'm sure the corals will love it...
