Hello Kristin,
Nice carmabi!!! I have been hunting for a nice one for awhile. May I ask where you got yours? and what is he/she currently eating?
Thanks, Scott

wow!
chaetodon declivis in reef tank !
does he bite any corals??:eek1:

I used to have one in fish only tank
 
the candy cave bass is SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!!!!!!

I am going to look for one. I have a feeling it might cost a purdy penny though. I shall see.
 
I have not researched them lately serious but if my memory serves me there is a swalesi and a carmabi. I am 75% certain the carmabi is the better colored one, but like I say , I gave up the hunt several months ago as I never found the prettier one. Thats why I asked tasiamay ( hint, hint).
Keep in mind i am only right 75% of the time so the above paragraph may be totally wrong =)

I think i know where to look to find the carmabi. Im at work now, but Ill check when i get home later tonight to see if he has em...prolly doesnt as that is my first time seeing that particular fish somehow.

Naka---nice joculator.
 
I have had my joculator for over a year now (there is a pic a few pages back and you can see him in my avator) and he has not touched any corals....

I have had him with SPS (mostly what my tank is), zoas, clams and even LPS. He does not touch a thing.

A great fish IMO, he has really grown since the last pictures, I should take some new shots.

I special ordered him through our local fish store in Phoenix. He did cost a lot of money but is well worth it! He has a great personality & is out & about all of the time. He eats everything and anything we feed the tank. I also have the swalesi in another tank, but he's much more secretive than the carmabi so I haven't been able to get a good picture. The reason we don't see much of the carmabi here is they go to the Japanese market.
 
Here are some of mine:

Any problem w/the Joc in nipping any corals? Beautiful fish
No problem w/ this fish. I also have 2 scolys and 1 brain coral. Never had problem w/ nipping.

Show us your fish Nick! Wayne, you got an awesome collection of fish. What's the rabbit fish in the last picture?

Wanye what kind Rabbitfish is in that last shot?

It's an orange spotted rabbitfish - I think it's scientific name is signus gattus.
 
Hey James,

I will try and get updated pics soon of all my "rare" fish in there :). There have been some new additions since I last posted.
