Local gig score today

Interesting.. I thought there were only two Stichodactyla ... the gigs and the haddonis... now realize there's a buncha different ones lol..
 
You can get most antibiotics labeled for fish and birds online. I buy mine at AtoZ vet supply. They are US based and have a great reputation. I used them for over 20 years when I was in dogs.
 
I'm pretty sure that's not a Red Sea Clownfish (Amphiprion bicinctus), wrong colour and has three stripes. I did dive in the Red Sea and none looked like this. I think it is a Sebae Clownfish (Amphiprion sebae). MM

Yeah I misspoke, I've had a Red Sea before and got it mixed up. It's actually a Madagascar clownfish (latifasciatus). I work at the University of Illinois and a friend of mine (Ross) started the first successful captive breeding project for them in the marine biology lab. I used to have 2 pairs but I gave one pair away when I downsized and of the remaining pair this one got territorial and I believe chased the other out of the tank as I found it on the floor. Link below on the clowns. They have a cool breeding setup and Ross keeps a nice mertensii with a pair on display.
