These lions are endemic to hawaii only... hehe I live there fortunatly... Well I did some digging, and found that these fish are seen rarely in trade... Sphex lionfihes are from hawaii and hawaii only... even here at almost all LFSs they come in at about a half inch. at run for $80 to a $125 at...

I don;t know bout mixing groupers with tusk... I'm begining to see the fighting... and i know for a fact my peacock grouper is scared straight of my tusk... hes always watching for a clearing when my tusk is swiming about... lol but if i had a choice i would go with a minatus... though bluelines...

I absolutly love my tusk too! It is a bit nervous feeding him though... but they are such a passive fish, nothing bugs them, and they bug nothing... unfortuante for me though... after the tusj had been in my tank for about 3 months, I decided to add a grouper... peacock grouper to be exact...

I'd hav to agree, it would seem that it was simply not your fault but rather the stress put on him from shipment to LFS and from LFS to your house. I had a very similar spute but with a dragonette insead... very likely due to mulitple stressfull situations during transfer, and or unhealthy.

Sorry bout the statement i said earlier, i guess i just lucked out, my shrimp lived happily for months, until my harlequin got to it. the only invert that got hit was a tiny cowrie that was impossible for me to get to, but i do have to agree with what yo usaid above. in order to completely get...

true, but it dosnt knock out and shrimp or crustaceans...

cool, thanks infact i got a couple 10 gal lying around the place somewhere, yea! looks like some DIY time!

Hi, well I'd like to switch to a sump/ fuge for my 30 gal. I've noticed a slight but noticable temp change with my 350 canister. I've checked temp with out running it and it drops 2 +/- degrees. I've always wanted a fuge system but sump based. Any good suggestions I should look into?

I'd have to agree with Nicetry, go with the hypo dip, its pretty cheap fast and effective, though you should get a QT for after treatment purposes. Either that or treat with a invert friendly chem, mardel coppersafe works pretty good IMO.

30 gal long FOWLR, soon moving to a 150 gal 1x Raccon Butterfly 1x Auriga Butterfly 1x Koran Angel (juv) 1x Tiger Blenny 1x Harlequin tusk 1x Hawaiian slipper lobster (juv) Wife's 16 gal bowfront nano reef bunch of life seaweed (red) punch of zoo's (not sure what kind) 5 +/- mole crabs 5 +/-...

mine was a hitchhicker, came with my tank... by observation, they find a hole, stay there and only come out a lito bit to eat, other than that all you hear is there snapping!

mine turned white too, but age was no factor, my harlequin tusk was! lol

yups its your lobster, I've got a tiny slipper lobster in my 30, and hes killed and eaten one of my scarlet cleaner shrimps, and one of my goat fishes. So knowing that Simply feed him a half a shrimp or so, he takes it happily! Unless you feed him directly, theres simply not enough food that...

I'd say go with the Remoras, it's simply amazing the amount of skimmate the little HOB pulls out, though it is pricey. Kind of like chillers, you get what you pay for. but like others have said its not nessecary, though it will help your tank alot!

Will do, thanks

thanks! Looks like I'm going to re-introduce him tomorrow!

Okay I guess I'll give it a try again tomorrow. Its just really uneasy for me to watch, I've had much bigger raccons and other butterflys pass threw the tank and no sign of aggresion to any other fish, with the ecsseption of the Koran cause he's just punky in nature! Do you think it has...

thanks for the reply, its just that I find it odd. I have had much lager fish pass threw my raccon in my tank, and absolutely no aggression has ever taken place, not once with my longnose butterfly, or my fluffy lion, just my harlequin tusk... the on fish I treasure in my tank and he can't even...
