my trip to greenwich aquaria

[jhale]

yes John, I'm avoiding you, the bucket is all mine :lol2:

the basement shots are under wraps, sorry, I should have asked before posting them :happysad:

 

[lfsmarineguy]

that crab is actually pretty cool, it's a Zebra Thorn crab (or that's what I have seen it called) and it is symbiotic with urchins, which looks really nice if you have a colorful urchin for him to live on.

How much was the Odontanthias ? Was it for sale ?

Jon, thanks for the pics. I haven't seen the show tank in a while. Looks amazing now! I can only imagine in a year or two.....

 

[KathyC]

Once again, great shots JH!
The store is amazing and I too have to get back up there again!

 

[jhale]

Kathy if you want some nice wrasses for your covered tank check these out,
I still have not made a cover so no wrasses fro me yet :redface:

these were right out of the shipping bags so the colors will only get better

 

[KathyC]

Wow, not only the great coloring, but they look so alert right out of the bags! There is magic in that place! lol

 

[jhale]

heh, it's not magic, but I think Jason does have some great suppliers for livestock. they got in 5 boxes of fish from the airport, all the fish looked healthy. It was pretty amazing, I forgot they had such a long trip, they all looked so good. the only problem is Jason has to remember he's supposed to be selling the fish, not putting all the best ones in the display :lol2: I guess I would do the same thing though

this is another box of fish in the acclimating bucket.

[KathyC]

I was afraid to ask how much one would cost.

Uh-oh, if you were afraid, then I'm terrified!:eek1:

[JasonE]

Jonathan,
once again thank you for making the trip and taking such awesome photos.
And thanks for making me look like the dashing swashbuckler I am.:Yikes:

Kathy, I only got one, but have heard there may be more around. Retail would be in $250 range.

And thanks again, to all of MR, for all the awsome support.

Uh-oh, if you were afraid, then I'm terrified!:eek1:

Jon.. The coral you brought home (with the green with navy blue tips ) do you know the name it was given? I have the same one from brought it at NERAC. love it! good luck with it.
Odontanthias borbonius
can be found at pets warehouse on sunrise hwy. Saturday they had 1 or 2 left in the frag tanks by the calpuera refugium. they go for $150 A few people on MR (LIRA forum) brought them, and they say they "eat like pigs" and love them.
