There's something fishy about this build...

[i cant think]

Darn
You are right
Its a porcupine not a puffer
I forget that the stereotypical pufferfish is not a pufferfish but a porcupine and this one is Diodon holocanthus not sure if that's considered a burrfish in some places. A big one too!

Spotfin
Cheatodon ocellatus

It looks like it could be one of these;
Chilomycterus schoepfii

Ooh man they’re some sweet butterflies! If I had a butterfly tank most of the Atlantic ones would quite quickly appear on the list!

This is the problem, the only guide I could find had like 50 species on it. Not nearly as many as actually exist where I was. I'm not confident on the butterfly either. Now I think maybe Prognathodes aya? The C ocellatus is right except for the back stripe??

 

[Slocke]

I am so confused


It looks like no butterfly species maybe a juve? There's some online with the eye spot and a faint line but nothing that looks like an exact match

Is that maybe a Marcellae?!

Someday I will see a tank seam failure thread that won't be about a red sea tank…

Will you though?

Will you though?

When pandora opened her box all of the miseries of the world escaped and only one thing remained. Hope.
We can only hope…


Or just not buy a red sea tank


Actually I think not buying a red sea tank is the better option. You are probably right

I bought a cone for my cat’s head because I wanted to cut his nails without him biting me…I was too scared to put it on.

What are you guys using to film underwater? Do you have a case for your phone or something?

I use a case, it works for me but eventually will probably want to go down the GoPro route.

@Fish Styx
If you want a good pro I have a couple spares. They are earlier models but they still work. Lmk
