ON my way back from Atlanta today, I stopped in a few norther ATL fish stores. if you are ever in Atlanta, go to Creations Reef in Kennesaw. it is off 575 and worth the trip. awesome store.

anyways, I stopped at Fish Mania in Chattanooga as well and saw this little guy perusing the tank. one of my fish that was on my must have list. and at $33!!!!! and it ATE too. so I just HAD to get it.

it is a Pyramid Butterfly or Zoster butter fly. Pretty slick fish and REEF SAFE!

The purple tang is a butt head. other than that, no one else really cares. I have come to the conclusion that the purple tang is much less tollerant and is more agressive than the sohal. that said, the sohal did display once or twice, but nothing like the chasing from the purple.

 

[NeedBiggerTank]

Maybe the purple tang should go in time-out!

 

[Pickupman66]

NAW. as of tonight they are accepting and we have zero issues except that the Pyramid flinches a bit when the purple flies by. I fed fish mush and it pigged out as much as the others.

Short Cake, You Mean... Glad they like it, I fed my fish for the first time with it today and they were very happy with it. When they swim aroun like their crazy you know they like it. I swear my hands still smell like Bikini Bottom.

ROTFL - Bill, that just doesn't sound right! :lol: Had I not been familiar with "bikini bottom" from Sponge Bob... oh, nevermind - I guess my mind is somehow in the gutter (again)!

 

[Pickupman66]

LOL. yea mine seem to like it as well. it is scarry seeing fish the size of my sohal swimming around like crazy eating everything he can get his mouth on. those three tangs are Hilarious at feeding time.

Yes, he did eat the short Cake. we will try some flake here in the next few feedings to see if he will go for that. as of now, the little bugger tests just about everything in the water column.
