Until it isn't?

Well I pretty much have gotten everything on my original list give or take. The only thing I don't have is a wrasse and to be honest not sure I need one. But your right.

Gentleman from Indiana vote has been taken.

Fox face is tiny 2-2.5

That Desjardini would look nice. My votes also on both

 

[Stang67]

Just got a message foxface isn't looking good enough so they aren't sending. Didn't see anything else that I wanted so they refunded me and are just sending the Desi.

Fish is here

 

[Stang67]

Packaging was spot on with a cold pack. But they didn't ship til later in the day last night and it got here before it was too hot out. It's floating now. Pretty big definately 3 inches +

 

[Stang67]

Made my own acclimation box this morning. I won't be home full time this weekend but will stop and check and feed tomorrow.

 

[Stang67]

Shipped at 1.021 so not much needed to bring it up to 1.025

Well the acclimation box floated away right when I was pouring out the last of the bag water to transfer it in. And we'll the fish is in the tank. So much for good intentions. No one has messed with it and they all seem ok with each other. I am camped out on the couch "working" so I can keep an eye on things.
It was a bit skinnier then I would have liked but hopefully that's not an issue.

Already picking already off the back wall. Amazing.

If the tang will eat mysis, and maybe a few pellets (if you feed those). I like to let them go all out until they get their weight back on. This is just how we're going to get the majority of fish.

That's what I was going to do. Get him fattened up first thing. Don't think it's gonna be hard. He found the nori clup and him and Kole Trickle have been mowing down on it.

That tang is perfectly healthy if that's what you're witnessing. Just keep an eye open for fluke, internal parasites symptoms. Sounds like you got a keeper.

Sick tangs will graze on rocks, and peck at random things. Only to go down hill throughout the weeks. Healthy tangs don't hold back. You know they're pigs!

 

[Stang67]

Maybe a bit of HLLE but I'm too new to tangs to tell. Hoping it's just skinny. Gonna feed feed feed. Sorry for the blues sitting on couch observing.
