no i've had it for about 2 months give or take a month. it eats and everything, it just stays very very small.

tanks been up for at least a year and a half. when i first set it up i used the water, rock, and sand from my large tank that was setup for 4 years.

i have this bubble that is small. since i've had it it has not come out all the way. it moved to under a rock and it won't let it's tentacles all the way out. is there something i'm doing wrong? the waters fine except the ph is only 8.0...i have compact lights with at least 3 watts per gallon.

well this is what i had in my 135 when i use to have it, queen angel, vlamingi tang, mimic tang, a pair of maroon clowns, and a pair of bangaii cardinals

this one isn't interested in shrimps or crabs. if he's interested in eating them he usually picks at them until they're dead. he doesn't even pay attention to the shrimps or crabs i have and they've been together for about a year
