we bought one for our 55g, but are going to upgrade tanks sometime after Xmas (to a 120-180 still debating on size). the first day he scared us, didnt move much, hiding laying on his side in between gaps in the LR, then a few days later he would stay put right by the heater, w/in 2 weeks or so he became very active. Now almost a month later, he is as big as the blue damsel that we have had since we started the tank in may(ish). Would love to pull the damsel out but i cant catch him
. Tank mates are
Blue Damsel (aprox 2-2 1/2")
Maroon Clown (aprox 4")
fire goby
2 big snails, and a handful of hermits +1 emerald crab
The damsel gave him a hard time the first few days, but now they seem to ignore eachother.
What is everyone else feeding them?
Currently I am alternating food between
Julian Sprungs Sea Veggies (purple seaweed) &
New life Spectrum ( Marine Fish Formula pellet)
at first the goby and tang would only eat the seaweed, now they eat both, and just the opposite for the clown (who prefers the pellet but will munch on the seaweed now and then).
The damsel ate both since introducing the seaweed
