Nick's 360 Gallons Reef Tank with Angels

Juvie Regal is losing it’s false eye spot. And I think it’s going to be a misbar.

Tiny little guy.
After 3 weeks of waiting for the lfs to get one, this cane in today. ~1”. ;Joyful
Wish me luck!

Very nice wish I would have gotten a little bigger tank so I could keep angels too

Thanks! It was pecking on seaweed and smaller pieces of mysis/brine. I want it to eat out of the water column the moment I drop in the food for a week or two before I release it into the tank.
Looking back at the picture I posted with my hand, The little emperor is more like 2" from head to tail. My goal is to grow this guy out to 8" monster.

No issue with getting the emperor to eat. In the tank with no issue from the much bigger tank mates so far. Should I add a second one? I always enjoy a pair of fish much more than single fish.

Great fish. I wish I could have one.

This emperor gotta be the fastest grower fish I’ve ever kept. Probably has quadrupled its size 4 months.

Pretty fish. Beautiful tank! You are right. I just finished reading through this and when you release him it was tiny and the picture above it is super awesome big boy size! Reminds me of my Lt. Tang I picked up from live aquaria back in May. It was probably 3" in size and today it is clearly doubled if not tripled not to mention the increase in girth. Of course I can't tell him/her that but in any case it is good to see. Means your fish is really healthy!!!!

Did my annual pilgrimage to Chinatown over the weekend.
Check these out! Stupid cheap! Take that, LRS fish egg.

[Wrangy]

What species of fish eggs are you using?? I reckon they like them a little bit haha

I have no idea. Didn't ask. It was all prepped in bags. I grabbed two to give it a try.
I did dream of my tank full of Tilapia though.
