curently the tank has been empty for 5 weeks (only shrimp and starfish in the tank )
he will go in my new 190G tank
i have been thinking of getting a clarion or a conspic
there will go in a Z.rostratum and a gem tang
small angels there is a chance that i can get a debelius (if i can not get the debelius i will go for a RTC inturruptus )
the other small angels i will like in the tank will be a RTC resplendent and joculator

They are even rare in Aquariums here , even our public aquariums in Durban and Cape Town dont have them- they are collected deep!

Congrats Yuri finally got your tiger

Congrats and good luck with your kingi.
