Nice pics and fish Gilly.
just a couple of questions, Blue cheek goby looks a stunner, what is its diet?
The cleaner wrasse, how long have you had it? as I hear they dont last too long normally.
Cheers

Thanks for the comments. The Blue Cheek eats just about anything. He spends all day sifting sand for critters but will also eat flake, frozen and nori. The last one surprised me tbh as I really didn't think they were algae eaters at all. Will have had him for a year in Feb.

I will have had the Cleaner Wrasse for 2 years in Jan. I think the general consensus is, unless you have a tank with several large fish for the Cleaner to...well clean, then their chances are pretty slim. It seems they need whatever they get from cleaning to supplement their diet. I've always kept him with tangs, triggers and angels and it seems to do the trick. He also feeds on flake, frozen and, his favourite, cyclopeeze.

Lovely pictures :)

I see why you put that caption over the tang one, he's actually holding out a fin to keep the regal from the limelight :D

Cheers

lovely fish you have your coral beauty lives up to its name

[Gillybaby]

Thanks for the kind comments guys :o

Mike, its taken more than 2 years and a lot of heartache to get our main reef to the way it looks today. I think that's why a lot of people leave the hobby early, cause it takes a while and a lot of effort for a tank to achieve its balance and mature. But its well worth it in the end. In a year or so you'll look back and wonder what all the fuss was about ;)

Thanks Callum, the coral beauty was the fourth marine fish we ever bought and she was my choice, as opposed to my b/fs. She had such great colour that I couldn't go home without her. I love her to bits, she is so cheeky...as you can tell from the look on her face in the picture ;)
