Picked this up at my local fish store today. It is really nice! Sorry for the iphone pic. Ignore the new era feeder. It fell in and has since been removed

A Merten I have in the same tank. I have had this one for 8-9 months

Those two are in a Deep Blue 45g (48x18x12). I also have a standard 90g that is plumbed into the same sump. The Haddoni may move to there eventually but I am redoing the aquascape in the 90g so put him in the 45g for now.

My LFS just put up a list of the stock they are getting in today. They have a Merten on the list. Not sure if they ship but pm me if you want the info

how deep is your sandbed please and how long did it take to latch to base of tank

My sandbed is around 4''. It latched down in like 30 minutes if that. I kept the powerheads off for about 12 hours to make sure he had a good hold. He was very healthy and very sticky. I lucked out. They usually don't ship this well.

Those purple Haddoni are so beautiful but they're usually so expensive around here, they're usually between 600 and 1000$ on average
