I can try but hes terrified of my camera so it won't be a good picture and the patches are hard to see anyways. I've had him for almost a week no they're all eating like fat happy fish swimming around normally it's just the PB he scratches on the sand sometimes too but he's eating fine and he...

My powder brown tang has dark almost burn or scar looking patches on his body and on his tail does anyone have any idea what this could be

I was given some old live rock about 10-12lbs I was wondering if it would be ok to just pit in the tank since it's not that much or should I cure it first

There's no way he could out of my tank every inch of is completely covered

Man so they are viscous little things I guess. I'm definitely going to keep him on the tongs I'd like to be able to clean the tank with out jaws music playing in my head.

I've tried feeding him by hand and ever time he ignores the food completely and he bites me so I gave up on that but I might try again. Would you really need to go to the emergency room for s snowflake eel bite? I thought they had flat teeth?

He's about a foot and I feed off a home made feeding rod

I've been reading that the hippo tang isn't really aggressive and that tangs are usually fine with triggers

Snowflake eel but I'm planning to get a Picasso trigger eventually too

My LFS has a hippo that they've had for at least a year would that be considered tank raised?

What's the difference in tank raised and wild caught? I also have a custom made 135 it's 6'x20"x22" if that matters at all?
