Looks awesome Brian! I'm liking the fishy that Scott has for you too ;)

I'll likely be heading your way the end of January to drop off the Mini to Scott so we'll have to coordinate as I can't come that far and not see this beauty! Chaetodontoplus septentrionalis looks absolutely amazing... few more pics and you might just convince Mark to give his jocs a mate!

I already sent Mr. K an email last week asking about the possibility of a juvenile :lol:

We'll have to together for sure. I only live about 15 min from Scott. As for that fish, I hope to have it soon, but I don't think it going any where.
 
Don't worry, he told me that he has not seen one in years and the smallest ones he's been seeeing are around 4". :idea:

Mine was sold as 4.5" but was more along 4.25". I think the there size might on the bigger side for good reasons. Anywhere in the 4" range is good for me. ;).

I was looking for something in the 3" range, but 4" should do just fine as well :p

I think as long as it coming from DD it will do fine. You pay alittle more, but it's worth every penny. I learn that with the bluespot.... just too hard to get to eat.

I hear you there. I am also thinking that after my last experience with small fish, I might need to think about adding a larger fish that the jocs

Or at least a few at a time. It's worked for me in the past to spread out aggression.

The problem is that there are two of them :lol: I also don't know how many more fish I want to add these days. The last 5 have not made it :sad1:

Well I can say that the blueline does hold it's own, but I don't have as many fish as you. I don't think you'll have a problem..... let's hope :).
 
Very nice piece Brian... is that a Granulosa of some sort? I like the smooth bodied corals more and more these days!

Dave, I haven't tried to ID it yet but it not a Granulosa. The the branches are not smooth like a Granulosa the corallites are more round like balls. It's a piece that I got from Rommel after he got out for awhile back in the day.
