HD's 144 1/2 Moon

[hdsoftail1065]

The store had this fish for a couple of weeks now. Yesterday when I was observing it swim towards the top then swoop back down I noticed all these bubbles and it couldn't figure out where they were coming from. Naturally I started to look closer and couldn't spot anything that stood out. Then I seen this...

The fish gets rid of this trapped air by expelling bubbles from its mouth and anus. In other words, it burps and farts.

Yep, if it works out I will name her Stinky!

Pick up 2 would ya and send me the other

Nice looking fish ! !

Sorry Brother, I did think about you but he only has the one in stock. They did have a nice Naso though It took allot to walk away on that one!

With the feedback I recieved from all of my fine friends, I will be picking Stinky up tomorrow. I want to bust out my water change first thing tomorrow morning so I don't have my hands in the tank stressing the little gal out.

But....I have a tendency to change my mind, especially if my wife isn't around to keep me in check!

We will see what happens... I'm not sure if my 144 will support one.

Those are a good looking fish! It’s on my list if I ever upgrade.

I think I'll post this question on a new thread and get somemore eyes on it. Don't be a hater if you see this question twice.

I can’t believe you would post this twice!

Jeeez!

My LFS had a Watanabe a couple weeks ago but he wanted too much for it. $150 is a little much for a fish for my wallet

No respect!!!

Great looking fish but out of my range as well!

I haven't updated for awhile but thought I would show off Stinky. She is doing fantastic in her new home. What a great addition to the tank. Thanks @Scurvy for helping me spend more money! I haven't had a chance to look at to many threads this past week but I have some catching up to do. I hope the challenge you have been facing is going well....I will soon find out.
The Dino problem is behind me and I'm still somewhat battling cyano.

Here's Stinky! Along with a random photo dump.

Looking good ! ! !

 

[Dsnakes]

Looking great! If you win the LA gift certificate you’d better add some coral

 

[hdsoftail1065]

Thanks guys! I actually have a few pieces that I'm dying to introduce to the tank but I had a hard time with low alk, Cal, and mag levels. I switched salts hoping to bring them up. We will see where I stand when I do my Sunday tests.

@Scurvy Well done! We appreciate your peer pressure skills for our viewing pleasure.

Talk about someone that is a bad influence..not mentioning any names but it sounds alot like @Scurvy.

Picking it up this weekend.

She is very pretty, but is that a little frown? Is she pouting because she wants Corals? I think yes.
