Christmas came early for me...

Yes, this is one of my aquariums. 125 gallons of pure terror! No, I'm just kidding. I do have some interesting additions to tell you about though. First, when I traveled to Texas some weeks ago there was a rock slide in my tank and I ended up losing one of my precious additions, my Lionfish.
I decided that I wouldn't replace her as I do tend to get attached to my fish. Well the other day we were at Sage and Jim's store and there sat a HUGE lionfish. We inquired and were told that it was on hold for another customer. In the meantime there sat in an upper tank a smallish lionfish staring at us. After some talking with Sage we tenatively put the little girl on hold and ended up bringing her home along with some other new additions. Luna, my Lunarwrasse, in the top part of the picture is just above my new Blue Dot Toby.


Here's a better picture of Leona.
Here is my Maroon clown with my new 4 striped Damsels. Amazingly these 3 are getting along just fine. Damsels typically don't do well together even though they are of the same family.
This is my new baby shark. Yes, you read that correctly. I did get a Brownbanded Bamboo Shark. She should be about 3.5' when full grown. So far she is doing well. Right now she is about 9" but is supposed to grow about 11" a year. She actually hatched in the store on 9/11. We have named her Bamboo. I lost her in the tank and finally found her cuddled up with my Golden Moray Eel.
