Best thing with videos is to upload them to YouTube or a similar hosting service, then post the link here.

Thanks. My engineer goby has such a personality!

Believe it or not, I had more rocks in the tank. My account picture is my tank 2-3 years ago. It seems like there is less rock but there was more.
Now I overhauled my tank, took out rocks, lps, and soft corals . Its now an sps dominated. You can see the frags in the pic above.

Nice job with the new Copper Band . i They are my favorite fish . I agree the spots are/were lymphocytes .She's a little skinny so feed it as best You can with gourmet foods. If the fish is eating well ,your 90% there !
I strongly suspect Mine is eating better than I feed . I'm finding a "lot" of empty snails shells !

Thank you!
Copperbands are my favorite too. I did a lot of research in order to make this successful and I am proud that I did.
I will post a new thread detailing what I did so others can learn.

I love leopard wrasses as well. My lfs doesn't get leopard wrasses due to its difficulty and actually discourage people from buying as well. (my lfs has good morals) However, motivated and optimistic, I ordered a trio of blue star leopard wrasses and I hope this will be successful as well.
