New Saddle Back Clowns!

I got my Saddle Back Clowns today! Lars and I went to A Place For Pets and Kevin had them on hold for me. We took them home, acclimated them and in they went! They took to their new home like fish to water (umm..yeah)!

The damsels pecked at the big Saddle Back, but she laid the law down and they Damsels are leaving them alone..lol

Now for some pictures!

Kev has some pretty impressive sales skillz if you went in for a fish and came out with that.

i think he just told him that is was a sea serpent and that it was the best thing you could add to a SW tank

Dude what is it....salamander??

Looks like a snake! But those fish look happy man! The tank looks healthy too, established and everything. Nice job, especially for your first salt tank!!

It's a Kenyan Sand Boa. Kevin knows how to get me. He just had lars hold the snake and he looks at me like, "isn't he awesome?" then he gave us a REAL nice price on the snake. The snake was so damned friendly, I had to get him. We picked up all we need for him, a critter cage with a locking lid so PPKat doesn't get to him, some sand and a heater, light and water bowl. He is super friendly and loves to be held.

This isn't my first snake, I have had a ton of Boas in the past. Some very large ones too.

We named him Shovel face. He is awesome.

Yeah man, I have a thriving little tank. A few crabs, some feather dusters, some live rock and the damsels and clowns. I didn't know ANYTHING about SW tanks. Lars helped me out and pretty much walked me through everything.
