Pretty! I thought those guys liked colder water, you running the tank colder than normal reef or does he tolerate the warmer temp?

 

[T-Boner]

They are cold 60-70° water is where they come from so I keep the tank 72°

They like there temps to be around 60 to 70F They will do ok for 2 to 6 months in reg temps,but will not thrive or live very long. And I know from having them not reading about them,we have tried 3 times and not had much success at getting them to thrive in reg.78-81 degree reef temps. I have a buddy from Cali.that has a killer tank full of these guys,he keeps his tank at 68f and has had his group for 3 plus years and still going strong.
This is a fish that I wish lived in our reef temps as they are truly breathtaking to see!!
Great looking tank also T bone !!
