NICE rhomboids Dan... I thought you already had a pair though??? Or at least a male anyway?
Did he jump ship on you or am I mistaken?

Thanks Ryan. Yes, I did get a linny but she didn't make it. A day or so after I put her in QT when opeing the top to feed she went crazy and smashed herself against the side of the tank. It looked like 1/8th" of her nose was missing and afterwards she would eat. She passed two days later :sad1:

Thanks guys. They've passed though a round of Prazi and Cupermine and are aggressively eating. I'll do a water change tonight and watch them for another week or so. Dave I've actually had 3 before. The first one died after a few weeks. The second two I added as a pair directly to the tank. They had some sort of parasite (or maybe poisioned during collection?), died within two days and within a week I lost 6-7 more fish, mostly wrasses. I had finally found the round in the chamber after playing Russian Roulette over the years so I started to QT my fish. Guess I'm growing up and becoming a responsible reefer...nah (at least on the growing up part).

Well, glad to hear you've gotten a healthy pair this time. Them's are some expensive lessons to be learned there son, lol! I have had a few of them more expensive classes in reefing myself through the years... :spin2:

Yup... I know exactly what you mean, unfortunately. One of the great perks in this hobby I guess, lol!

Thanks Brian...I was trying to photo fish but I just couldn't get them to sit still and smile for the camera. (Come to think about it, kinda like my kids.) Took a bunch of pictures and this was the only picture that looked halfway decent. Was really trying to photo my Macropharyngodon geoffroyi but he was too fast.Nice pic.... much better than any of mine.
:dance:
A box? You have been hanging out in my thread too long :hammer: C'mon reef baller; spill the beans!
Messing around with the camera, got one semi-decent pic.
Very nice! These guys move quick, too quick for me at least.
