I was lucky to have a decent size acrylic tank in the corner of my garage ready to get plumbed. I built a collection box for palegic eggs on the back of the tank. This will allow me to conveniently collect eggs from all sorts of palegic spawners. Mandarins, dwarf angels, basslets, and so on.

Damn, when did they get these in? I check their rss feed daily and never saw these pop up. I won't even ask what the pair set you back.

Best of luck getting them here, settled in and in the mood.

You need to email and ask if something you're looking for is coming through the pipeline. Usually they'll give you an item number then just call and pay for it.

This pair will arrive on Wednesday. I can't wait to share pics.
 
Can we start calling dibs on the babies right now? Haha. Those are amazing. Cant wait to see them
 
Good luck with them, will be fun to watch.

Can't wait till I get them tomorrow :)
 
Will these come eating frozen or will that be something you have to train them?

I don't expect them to eat frozen, but scooter blennies I think are more likely to figure that out. I'm filling their tank with live rock from all my systems to ensure enough food to graze on. Plus, I'm culturing copepods again, and expect plenty for them to eat.
 
Congratulations on the find! . .and good luck with the breeding! What kind of setup are you using to breed pods?
 
Ok. That's considerably larger than the setups I've read about in the past. They were something like 2 liter bottles with little or no circulation? Anyhow, it's a process I've thought about but fortunately my LR keeps the pods going. It is something I plan to look into at some point but I'm already maxed out on space for my system. :biglaugh2:
 
They are here :)
Also, There is another pair coming in tonights diver's den. Someone here going to get them?
