North America is experiencing a major cold front. I know you all aren't out frollicking in this mess (unless you're hunting and fishing.) So, that means you're inside and probably upgrading or cleaning your tanks.

I've been aquascaping a new 45 cube that will be added to my system soon and planning where the display tank wall will be built in my basement. Hopefully I'll be doing the framing in the next two weeks.

Tell us what you're up to!

I didnt even realize i didnt post that.

Its amazing to watch when it eats depending on which side the food lands on its outer disc depends on which mouth eats it.

I did a post on RC and Reef2reef on it but didnt get any hits.

Nice pickup for 89 bucks

Just recieved a small pair of nigripes from a retail shop in New Jersey. I slowly acclimated them to their new enviornment, observed them swimming for a short while, and then screamed LIVE DARN YOU! LIVE!!!

On a more serious note I'll post some pics as soon as they settle in.

Are you in jersey cause i am.

I know where you can find some single nigripis that have been in the store for at least three - 4 months

No, i'm in Oregon but I may have bought just those clowns! Were they in Oceans Gallery? If so do you know how they were keeping them? With or without an anemone? The reason I ask is because I put them in my display with a large healthy mag thinking this might alleviate as much stress on them as possible but they seem to have very little interest in it. This was real surprising to me considering they appear really healthy, eating, swimming around all over the place etc.
