The one with the snazzy stripe?<BR/><BR/>I was at the fish market yesterday and found myself checking out the lobsters in a huge aquarium. I couldn't help but think of your “guests”. Anyway, you've completely changed my view of aquatic life!Evangelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12646046206357940114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55892249698893833.post-45568829166858196992008-06-02T03:23:00.000-07:002008-06-02T03:23:00.000-07:00I'm a little late to the post but then again, that...I'm a little late to the post but then again, that's just a perfect image for a Monday morning.AndiFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07767389458803503532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55892249698893833.post-5872138527409415602008-05-31T16:58:00.000-07:002008-05-31T16:58:00.000-07:00NDD,The eel was an absolute beauty.

This is what I added to the reef that I kept the eel in. Luckily, this reef was on a different maintenance cycle than the three others, or I might have lost so much more.Knuckleheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733105237141682139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55892249698893833.post-1387866446549626832008-05-31T16:43:00.000-07:002008-05-31T16:43:00.000-07:00too bad about the eel, he looked pretty lively in ...too bad about the eel, he looked pretty lively in the photo, but sometimes life just throws a curve ball and it's strike three. <BR/><BR/>I'm in the city until Monday evening, so I'm enjoying highspeed int for a while. <BR/><BR/>Great shots as usual KH.<BR/><BR/>It actually feels like summer here today.

It was a rescue I took in, temporarily, until I could find a much larger tank for it. It will grow up to be over two feet in length. Sometimes I get calls to rescue fish & take them unconditionally, knowing that in my circle of connections, in this marine hobby, I`ll be able to find a good healthy home for just about any species.<BR/>I did lose the eel though. I still feel horrible about it, even though it was an unpredictable convergence of, never to even be anticipated, circumstances.Knuckleheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733105237141682139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55892249698893833.post-58422599507617748302008-05-31T16:29:00.000-07:002008-05-31T16:29:00.000-07:00my my what a soulfull expression on the Panther El...my my what a soulfull expression on the Panther Elephant 1.
