Talking Cleaner shrimp on patrol...

I was amazed how quickly my Lysmata spp. shrimp paired up, it took them all but two days to start hanging together and go after food and performiong cleaning duties. Check them out...



And since I have your attention, here's some more images I shot recently of my 75g tank.


Here's my Ctenochaetus striatus playing hide and seek but looking out for any food that I may drop in the tank...


This is a shot of the new blue A.formosa frag that is in its infancy( a mear stable of growth on the plug) but I can see that it may become a real beauty.



I also think this A.something is a real potential to become a beauty.

Thanks guys!

Ken, those are not macro shots. I used my new prime lens on those 85mm f1.8 from Canon, sweet lens.
Here are couple that was shot with the macro lens.

OUCH! Gene those pictures are so SHARP, that I think they poked my eyes! Great work!

I knew I should have bought that 85.... I bought an Epson R1800 instead, and it is really quite nice though.
