i picked this guy up about 2 weeks ago as a impulse buy. I got him. As a tank mate for my baby Tusk and have really grown to like him. Now I'm just not sure what to do with him. He is to small to go in my next tank build because of the fish that will be in it I'm afraid he will get eatin. I might just have to keep the bio cube running just for him. Anyone else have one.

I have one in the show tank at work. He's full grown now and a neat little character. He's in a tank with some aggressive lighting maroons and active anthias. He get's his fill of food and is always popping his head out of the rocks to check out what's going on. Cool little guy

I love the patterning on this perchlet! To me the geometric pygmy like yours is prettier than the Pelicier perchlet ($799 on DD).

they're actually a type of anthias! I absolutely love mine, even though I almost never see him in my 90 lol.
