any aggression with your dottyback and tang?
Dottyback and tang get along fine. The dottyback did attack the Royal gramma I added a few weeks ago and seems to have inflicted some damage. The gramma now has no balance and hides in the back corner. The tang came later and is bigger than the dottyback. She’s the new tank boss, lol.

Dotty back seem to go for the underside of the fish and kill them.

Throwback Thursday
Just took a look back on my thread to the tank just before I moved out of my home. The tank is night and day since the crash I had around the move, but I still love it every day.

I wouldn't mind a Royal Gramma or an orchid dottyback, but I've heard they are major jerks.
I have been thinking about an Orchid Dottyback recently (Pseudochromis fridmani). Beautiful fish and purportedly one of the least aggressive Dottybacks.

I have a neon dottytback. While it holds its own, it's not aggressive perhaps because the coral beauty is constantly swimming through every passage and has conditioned the dottyback let it just pass by.

However, that doesn't worry me as does my concern the rock work will tumble due to its round the clock excavation of the sand bed under the rocks.

LOL, no sand for me. Wait, do they require sand or they’re just jerks?

Frags are at the FedEx sorting facility in Jamaica as of 7:43. I think they need to go to Melville to get on a local delivery truck. The delivery time is still listed as by 10:30 am.

Anyone want to do some over under betting?

more information for anyone who wants to take a stab at the actual delivery time.

with the new traffic volumes, the drive time from Jamaica (JFK) to my house is 40 minutes

The local facility in Melville is 20 minutes away from me directly south.
