[kinlayan]

looks good that wrasse, just make sure you have a lid on the tank they do jump flashers

 

[Yurivd]

where can i get ides for cover

 

[Yurivd]

finally got sum photos

 

[kinlayan]

Well you need some sort of cover glass or thin netting to prevent it jumping out

Nice pictures, what are the blue and yellow fish fusiliers?

also is that pic taken in the Mauritian collecting facility?

yes it is from collecting facility
do you have links of the net top covers

 

[Cantonesefish]

Usually people make the net covers themselves out of plastic framing and mesh; home depot should have what you need... except I'm not sure if they have home depot in south africa

Sorry to hijack, but I must know!

Incredibly expensive fish (in excess of $1000)

i dont think theres a home depot in south africa.


i would take a window screen and pop out the mesh and get a wider hole mesh from a home improvement store.

Hey skibum, yep that's a nahacky's angel. Not mine but it is a great photo of one!

Yeah any home improvement store should do for mesh.

Yurivd, take a look at this thread: http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=817485&highlight=mesh+cover

Is there a website for this fish collecting facility?
