They are some pretty sexy fish... good addition to your tank. I like them.

Nice clowns. Bonnie and Clyde approve.

Thanks ! ! Wife wants to name them Frosty and Krystal, I was thinking Snow White and the Huntsman

So I tried my best to get a decent pic of these 2 but they don't stop moving AT ALL. I took about 35 pics and these 2 were the best I could do right now. I fed them some mysis and they scarfed it down. They are swimming all over the tank and seem to be adjusting well. They were not a bonded pair and were in separate tanks. The LFS uses small 3 gal tanks to QT all his fish that he has for sale and they were 2 tanks away from each other. They seem more like a bonded pair than I would have thought. They swim together and apart but always come back to each other. Kinda cute. The larger one has the white dorsal and black tail an is approximately 2". The smaller one has mostly white dorsal with some black in it and is about 1.5". He also has a few spots on his side. I don't know what they are but as close as I can tell they look like Frostbite, but I am not positive.

Retested dkH after dosing some soda ash and it's back to 8.06. Also salinity had dropped to 1.0235 so I added a gallon of 1.029 to the ATO. I will retest in a couple days to recheck

Missed a bunch the past couple weeks, glad to see some fish in the tank! My gonnies like a little grime in the water. Only times ive seen them angry were when I bottomed out N&P. Great coral shots!

Ya without fish in there my trates took a dive. I shut off the sulfur reactor when they were getting low but they continued to drop. I was feeding pellets occasionally but it didn't help. Now that there are a couple fish in there, I'm hoping they rise up again.

The bottom looks pretty dang similar. I really like the top one though... The white dorsal fin is awesome.

I need one of your BTA for them ;);)

Wow @Fudsey :) spent most of my day reading your thread. What an experience with all of the shipping issues and the used tank sale... it sure has turned out nice though! Keep it up!

I can tell, I just came back on after a few hours and I had 130 alerts :)

Beautiful clowns!

Thank you ! ! :)
