Yes and yes. Dream was always two peps and narcosis.

The death rate in these peps is tremendous i think i count now way over 50 percent. Koji told me a story of 2 that died this week from existing clients from doing large water changes in 25 to 40 per

paracentropyge is a difficult genus..in commonly available Multiber and Venustus,death rate should be 90% by my reckoning...may be more...

Well it's time someone beats the odds, best of luck with the two new fish. You have now had some experience on what to do, and this time it should all work out perfectly.

Looking forward to the pics

So far so good. Everyone is doing well and eating. When i got the fish the water temp was dn to 65. Was freezing out yesterday. Took them from 65 to 75 over 4 hours. And the good news is the old pep doesnt have that killer attitude over this one. Perhaps male female or this one is just better fish. Maybe we will have peppermint babies. Lol. Anyway each has half the tank. I will consider pulling divider in few days.

 

[hedgedrew]

So the new pep. Somehow crossed the egg crate divider. I founf the fish together and while there was mild chasing it was by no means what happened with pep 1 and pep2. They actually got along to some degree with just some usual but not alarming terrtory stuff. I am so excited. Male female. .? Or just smaller younger fish that is less threatening. Either way im excited. Narcosis is also sharing tank with no issue.

That could be the greatest tank in the world, I would love to see a video of it

I am happy to hear the peps are getting along, congratulations

 

[auem]

yea,i would like to see a video too...if possible,of feeding..

 

[hedgedrew]

We will get video. Tough to get all together.

The new pep has to be the opposite sex. Glad they are getting along. Any updates since Thursday? Very curious to know how they are doing.

 

[hedgedrew]

All the flsh are friends. Baby narcosis ,pep stick and pep patty. Lol. I did it. It only took 82 k. Lol. Omg. Thats before the set up of tank and chillers. Close to 6 figures. So maybe ill be earning it back with pep babies. Just need a few lol.

Andrew,...thanks for the chuckle! My BEARS just lost, so I was in one of my moods. :lmao:

 

[hedgedrew]

The bears. , i went to school in madison so i have some bears in me. Mostly from chicago friends

 

[hedgedrew]

And how ironic is it that as far as narcosis goes,the one thats living and doing the best is probably the most fragile baby tiny dime size of the bunch. Go figure

Sometime,...youth has no fear.

 

[auem]

hey,now is the time for a video shot....:beer:

 

[RayL]

I am very happy that you finally set up and have a promising dream tank.

Please share this with us and post a video soon

 

[premilove]

Haha success! I'm sure you'll end up with a few off spring. Cough discount cough. Lol. Now what would be hilarious is if that tiny narcosis decides it's the king of the tank and bosses the peps around. Show us a video!!

 

[hedgedrew]

Im currently in paris. Maybe ill see if yalcin can get video

 

[RayL]

Maybe you will end up cross breeding, narcosis x peppermint. Introduce something new to the world
