Got another update! :dance: I got a Male Blue Spotted Box fish. Before you start flamin, YES, I did research before I bought him. Hes been acting like hes been in the tank forever, swimming out in the open, pecking at the rocks, ect, ect. Here is a picture of a Male Blue Spotted Box fish. Its not mine, but its the same thing.

 

[Western_reefer]

Hes still a juvi and is now just starting to get his adult male colors. :dance: He doesn't touch a thing and eats like a fat pig! Hes a little skinny because I got him from the LFS a few days ago but hes getting fatter and fatter as the days go by.

I got another update! I got 3 new fish and corals! I got a Flame Cardinal for $10, Tang (Ctenochaetus striatus) for $20, and a Yellow Candy Hogfish for $10. I got very large cap, a few large different acros, colony of purple birds nest, some large LPS, some more candy canes, mini colony of green pavona, and a large 6+ inch colony of encrusting pink monti all for FREE for helping the local reefer catch all her fish in her 360 gallon tank. Here is a picture of the Tang (Ctenochaetus striatus).

Are all the fish getting along okay?

No aggression or havoc?

Everyone is getting along perfectly. No aggression what so ever. The large fish include: 3 tangs and 1 trigger and I'm done with adding large fish. Might add a few more different clown gobies down the road, but that's about it.

Thanks! I'll try.


Here are a few pictures. Its almost impossible to take pictures during the day because the glass is reflecting everything. Pictures were taken under Actinic lighting.

Male Purple Queen Anthia

Blue Crocea Clam.
