MasonHoff Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 Cool that your fire fish are already out and about. Sometimes they can be real shy. And I really love the pistol/goby pair. Have been be of my favorite match ups. Once I get rid of the devil damsel fish, I am getting another pair. yeah as soon as the light goes from the actinics to the 4 moonlight LEDs for the last hour of the day. they disappear like lightning into a hole in my LR .(my red one has done this like clock work since day one.) and only come back when the actinics come back on they reappear like lightning. fun to watch!

JamesL Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Yeah, those are scary. I did a good cleaning on my tank, and accidentally plugged up my HOB fuge... I was still in the room when I see water creeping out from under the stand. Thankfully we have stained concrete floors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasonHoff Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 it defianatly rattled my bones. cause i plan for and against faliure, cause thats the typpe of person i am! the old CYA thing! (cover your ***) but good news the new addition achilles decided not to be so shy, and act like a big fish now. achilles has decided to pair back up with my other clown (nemo) in the frogspawn again. but definatly crusies the whole tank! I think it makes him feel more comfortable being with his own kind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teresa Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I've caught your Helfrichi firefish in several pics/videos and he's beautiful! I'm wondering if you think these fish are worth their price tag. I want to get a pair of firefish for my 12 gallon nano (they would be the only fish) and the Helfrichi is so tempting. Are they worth the extra money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasonHoff Posted August 14, 2011 Author Share Posted August 14, 2011 thats up to you teresa and your reefing habit! your more than welcome to come by my house and stare and mine, while you decide. I like to have things that are high end or LE! but even before i saw the price i thought it was one of the coolest looking nano fish around! i have a one of the common fire fish im prolly gonna sell if i can catch him! but with my actinics and LED stunner strip i dont even need TV i could watch him all day!
