Don't think I will be selling these gems... I think bro Hammy might consider selling :lol: These are real beauties and I'm glad that their colouration remain unchanged after 2 months... coz I heard from a bro that his faded away :(

My last Irwana's shipment purchase... 2 Radioactive Zoos, 1 Pink Zoos, 1 Sulawesi Green Man-eater Zoos :) Not all polyps are fully open yet (emm... dunno what's taking them so long) but my Green Man-eater is somewhat injured during my battle with the crab ;) My fault... I was too obsessed with getting the crab out... perhaps a little too long a freshwater bath :pinch:

Finally moved the Xenia nearer to the front... it seems happier in this new location... also can take close up shots of the polyps... they are such a joy to look at and they are spreading fast :lol:

Ahh... commercially bred... will definitely be easier to keep... but the problem is they are highly sought-after and the price is quite insane :shock::shock::shock: Emm... perhaps... my next candidate :)

Neon goby not v expensive leh. Around same or abit more than yellow tang leh. Less than 1 blue note.

I got 1 gold wan, very popular with the fishes for servicing :D

Yes they do... very amusing actually... that's one of the reasons I moved it closer to the front glass panel so that I can see them "pump" :lol::lol::lol: I need to off my wavemaker to see them pump properly :)

And they are spreading in my tank. One of the polyps fly to a flat LR surface and started a colony there. But it's shaded by my Gonio... so don't expect the new colony to grow quickly :)

Emm... 1 Neon Goby for less than a blue note is considered expensive considering a normal Cleaner Wrasse costs less than a green note ;)

Emm... 1 Neon Goby for less than a blue note is considered expensive considering a normal Cleaner Wrasse costs less than a green note ;)

If you compare to Cleaner Wrasse then it's more expensive, but overall, I think it's more worth it cos Cleaner wrasse is more difficult to keep alive while Neon Goby is so much easier! :)

I have a Gold Neon Goby (1 year +), very popular with my other fishes......now looking forward to introduce a blue one! :P
