Finally have my dream fish

I have been dreaming of this day for a long time. I even set up my aquascape specifically for this fish. Unfortunately i am leaving town for a long weekend but the store where i got it is kind enough to keep it until i get back. QT starts monday! Oh and he started eating just minutes after acclimation!

Looking good. Looks like a gold rim x Achilles mix. What sort of qt is your lfs doing?

I think he meant he's going to get the fish monday and start QT'ing by himself..

I personally would not trust my LFS to Qt for me. Especially with a disease prone fish like an Acanthurus.
 
Yeah they are just keeping an eye on it until I get back in town. If need be they said they will dose cupramine or anything else to treat whatever shows up. I am crazy about QT and nothing gets in my display without it. This will pretty much be my last fish, I'm looking at getting some gobies I like but I already have all my other fish I want.
 
I just found mine the other day. A small yellow belly regal. Now here I am at 3am checking on her in QT.making sure everything is okay. Crazy addiction this hobby.:sleep:
 
Good luck! I bought one for my buddy who helped me set up my first saltwater tank. It was his dream fish too!

Oh man I feel your pain... When I get my YBR I think I'll be sleeping right in front of the Qt.. With probable daily water changes...
