I had decided this would be my next fish. Trouble is 2 different places now have cancelled my order at the last minute do to declining health. Is this fish that delicate ? Or is it location or time of year ?Looks like I should look into something else reef safe....

 

[snorvich]

They are excellent fish. I have seven of them and they are all healthy. It seems as if they do not do well with prophylactic treatment so they may not be healthy when some vendors treat them instead of merely quarantining.

Thanks snorvich... I may try again sometime in the future. Did you get yours locally or online ?

 

[snorvich]

I get all fish and most corals online, the exception being frags from local people. These are great fish, especially in groups.

mine have been bulletproof. An addition I am so glad I made. Where are you "oredring" from? Not to bash, but swf.com always says they have them in stock, but never does.

 

[snorvich]

LA has them in DD occasionally but Reefhotspot seems to have them in stock all the time. I ordered twice: both groups, one group for each of my larger tanks.
