Today marks 3wks that my Lavender tang has been downstairs and in timeout haha

Should I wait longer? It’s not hurting anything down in my observation tank, other than having to feed separately lol

I got one of these after one of the magnets rusted out on my eshopps box.

Today I put a spotbreast angel in and it's fantastic. Highly recommended for reintroducing your lavender.
 
Just made an acclimation box. It measures 18”L x 6”W x 18”H and has an egg crate bottom. I’ll post some pics here shortly.
 
Here are some pics, lavender has been added!

The Lavender tang has been in the DT acclimation box now for 9 full days. There was some flaring between all tangs off and on starting on maybe day 3. That has since slowed and rarely happens now. I’m hopeful, but time will tell.

The lavender will continue to hang out in here for a few more days at least.
 
Nothing to update yet. Lavender is still in the box. Tomorrow will mark 2wks.

Maybe tomorrow will be the day! Haha
 
Lavender tang was released back into the display tank on February 28th. So about 18 days now.

Happy to report all is well. Not a single issue!
