Purple Tangs are Shady. If there was ever a fish with a shank, it would be a Purple Tang…

Mine is a fat and fairly friendly citizen, but I don’t see many that are so
Mine is the same way, maybe because it has always had larger fish that it around it, but never messes with the smaller ones either. Achilles will put everyone in their place if needed, but is really just a puppy.

My Powder Blue is a good 1 1/2” down on size from everyone else, and still runs the tank. She’s not aggressive, but any time another fish tries to assert dominance she’ll barb up and let them know who the boss is.

Her more diminutive size could be why she isn’t aggressive, but the Purple is still my largest tang apart from the Naso, and I don’t see any acts of aggression from either of them. The Naso spends the majority of the day surfing the top of the reef where the current is, and the PT is usually right along with the Powder, scouring the rockwork. Some fish are just… well…

coffee time here in AZ @ 5:52 am ..got the windows all in and the framing done. Today we gonna measure and measure to set base block for the 3 pillars for the patio cover that get tied to the new addition walls. The patio pillars are 16x16 block w rebar a cell filled with concrete. I guess the City thinks I am building a bridge ...hahah also have one electric run to do for lights in the closet cabinets.. A freind of a friend gave me two coral colonies that were dying, I gut them up into frag and saved what I could about 4 months ago. They are growing good. Hammer and bicolor frogspawn. The frogspawn is very bright green w purple tips...Here are two pictures under radion g5 blues on lps setting... They are very good size. I have 16 hammers and 8 frogspawn..Soon to sell but not at the crazy prices I have seen...dang ...some of the big farms want 159.00 for a 3/4 inch piece of the frogspawn...these are over 1" to about or over 2 " at least. Some single,double and triple heads..

OMG...... She's so adorable. As bad as I would like one, I still enjoy my fleshy coral.

Finally got some sleep last night. I am just going to stop worrying on things.

LTA stopped moving. Ribbon eel is eating. The rest will have to play out. There is nothing I can do should the worst take place.

I can medicate the lta... The ribbon.. Out of my hands when it comes to some things. All I can do is provide a proper diet and water quality. Time to enjoy the weekend. IS it possible?
