Pistol makes an appearance!!

I recently rehomed my beautiful Gold Striped Maroon Clownfish and Purple Sebae Anemone.

It was a hard decision to make, but the GSM was constantly burying any corals within it's "personal space." It's personal space and my idea of it's personal space were very different. I got tired of constantly moving Zoanthids further away, only to find out that the GSM still didn't think they were far enough away...lol.

Well, the other day, another added benefit appeared...literally. My Pistol Shrimp/Watchman Goby almost always were in hiding. Their hole happened to be behind and kind of under the Sebae. The GSM probably had something to do with the secretiveness of the shrimp and goby. In the absence of the GSM and Sebae, the two must feel more bold. The pictures aren't that great because the Pistol Shrimp is digging and throwing sand everywhere.

Thank you all for your kind comments!!

fsu1dolfan, I shoot with a Canon Rebel Xt, hoping to upgrade soon!! Those particular shots were taken with the 100mm Macro, which I'm still learning to use. It was a recent purchase and takes a lot more practice and attention to detail than any other lens I have...lol.

Softiegirl, give them time, and listen for "clicking." Don't be surprised if it's awhile before they get settled. If you suddenly hear something that sounds like your tank cracking...they're alive....errr...or your tank is cracking...DOH
