Hey Gang,
Looking for anyone raising clowns or bangaiis. Are there any local reefers with some for sale?
Thanks
Kevin

Hey Kevin,

Did you ever find a Banggai? I not, I have one extra (not sure of the sex) from a group I have been pairing. I've had them since they were about 10 weeks old - got a group of 8 babies from Catdoc in Bloomington. They are 13 months old now. Let me know if you are interested in my poor outcast!

Hey, Ken, how are "my" babies doing? I've been wondering about them--would love to see some pics! Did the others pair up for you?

Oops - that was a short reply! The kids I still have are doing great. Two pairs, and then the "loner". I gave 3 to a friend of mine, and a freak accident wiped out all of his fish (an anemone climbed into a powerhead, got shredded and filled the water wtih nematocysts!) Both of my pairs have spawned, but haven't yet held to term. Here's a couple of pics as full-fledged adults

Hope the rbta is still with you!

Hey Christy,
Are you still raising the bangaiis? I thought you had or were getting out of it. Let me know. I would like to find at least 2. Do you guys think that if I got the one from Ken and then added a second that they may pair up?

No, I have a juvenile pair but they've not spawned (that I know of).

Ken, the rbta went into hiding when I changed my lighting a few months ago. The greens did fine, not sure why the rose didn't. It reemerged for a few days and was nearly bleached. I managed to feed it a couple of times before it hid again and I haven't seen it since.
