I like your tank too... like ed said, very unique shells on the hermits and you dont see many arrow crabs either. The tank is unlike those that we see in the states. great work!

By the way, I have read that those arrow crabs may eat small feather dusters and other tiny creatures that live in the reefs... so do you have any feather dusters in your rocks?

thanks for the lovely comments guys

we did the kitchen ourselves....just ripped out the old put new floor down and fitted the new...i like it too...most of it is from IKEA...dunno if you have those stores over there!?

the arrow is good...he eats bristles and keeps my population of those in check, and hasn't touched any of my feather dusters...he's a refugee from my brother's tank...his mean damsel took 4 legs off him before they could get him out

my hermits are NAUGHTY...the shells came from 2 lovely tiger nassa snails, but they thought they would look better in them :fu ...i still have 1 left... i'll have to dig out a better kitchen pic as it was so popular :0)

thanks again

hehe... it's a date

i just have to get rid of clutter...but it's a never ending battle here....just everything neutral always works....it looks unfussy, and you can always paint one wall, get some cushions etc for a bit of colour...

i'm no interior designer, but my degree was in textile design...i teach now (4-5 year olds) with a bit of silversmithing on the side
