A Pic of my Plesiops oxycephala

[JM68]

For those of you who saw the earlier thread posted by Aquabacs you know how awesome this fish looks. As far as i know there was only two of these guys brought in so far, i got one and Aquabacs got the other. I wasnt able to get a pic of mine until today, when he perched in a place that i was able to get a decent shot. He was still in a dark hidden area so the pic is pretty dark even with the flash, but you get a good representation of the orange on him(Aquabacs' pic was much better than mine). Very cool fish i wish i could get another one to try and make a pair.

very cool! would love to see more pictures if you can get them. i realize they're pretty cryptic.

I use to see these guys in the LA wholesalers - I picked one up for my 190 cool water reef - I literally never saw it again - whn I moved the tank a year later it popped out of some live rock - I had forgotten I had it

If I recall they do better in cooler water

I suspected it was eating shrimp though - my peppermints kept dissapearing
