It looks so much bigger in the video!
I wish. My 5 year plan is to get a 6' tank, 180-220 somewhere. The Bad Guys will be so much happier. Especially Jello.

I love his name lol
 
I love his name lol
The story behind his name:
Jello started out in my 55g which has the theme of musicians. He's named after Jello Biafra, the lead from The Dead Kennedys.
Lemmy, my Dusky, was also in that tank originally.
 
Triggers will eat corals and cuc right?
He hasn't touched coral yet, but i don't have much in that tank at the moment.
The wrasse get the CUC more than he does.

They had a very pretty red tooth trigger at my lfs the other day.

All my tanks have themes for their names. I'm a dork :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

Same trigger. They're beautiful fish.

He certainly runs the tank.
 
Anyone else find it hard to wait for tank lights to come on when you are home?

I turn on the lights in the living room and all the fish start coming out one by one lol

I was tempted but then figured he would eat my other fish and my cuc so until I decide to do another saltwater tank I decided to skip him. I might go back today though for the sand shifter they had if it's still there.
 
I love it!
Bad Guys:
Desjardini - Hugo Drax
Timor wrasse - Blofeld
Copperband- Dr. No
Red cosis - Donald "Red" Grant
Cleaner shrimp - Knick Knack

Chrysus wrasse - Goldfinger
Temminicki wrasse - Odd Job
Hardwicke wrasse - Jaws

I think that's it?
