Very nice! Why is the Trigger spitting, is this normal for them?

 

[Myteemouse]

Well some do. And he has an attitude problem :)
some actually grunt like pigs you can hear through the tank.
they are cool animals!
The flame wrasse pair are super cool and way mello.

Nice fish. I got a pair of flame wrasse from Les, they are awesome. That blue throat is great too. I don't usually see them that nice.

those are nice, that trigger is way cool and the wrasses are very nice. i bought a flame a long time ago and it did the leap the first night. i was quite bummed, i didn't know what notorious jumpers they were back then

Very nice trigger, love how the colors are so pronounced. I have a male as well, but his colors aren't so bright. However, on my new tank build, I'll be adding a female, so I hope the male will brighten his colors back up.

Love those flames too, I have a trio coming on Friday.

I thought those wrasses were gorgeous, then saw the trigger- very nice pickups!

And yea, triggers, puffers, and other invert eaters spit to blow sand off any buried inverts before nailing them, they'll also use it as a defensive method. Heck, even my dwarf lion was spitting at me the other day when I put her in a specimen container when i was working on the tank. She got upwards of a foot of distance, which is impressive considering she's about 3-4 inches...


Again, very nice pickups Mr. Mouse!

thanks guys I love them.. The BLue on the blue jaw is AMAZING and he's so thick JUST a beast..
The flame wrasses are small so they got lots of growing to do which I love.
