Hey there!~
The possum wrasse is doing beautifully! I was worried at first because as soon as I put it in my tank, my clowns and blenny chased it to the back and I heard that they are really peaceful, shy fish and don't do well with "boisterous" tank mates.
When I came into work on Monday, that sweet little thing was swimming all around the back, even coming out to the middle out front when I fed the fish. It's eating a mixture of mysis, brine, marine cuisine and emerald entree soaked in garlic plus, zooplex and amino acids. At the LFS, it was in a tank for 2 weeks with seahorses and ate mysis. I am SOOOO happy with this fish. Looks like it's going to do well.
The other fish don't bother it and it seems happy just fluttering around the back and middle for now. Coming out A LOT more than I thought by now!
By looking at the pic on the other page while it was acclimating, can you tell if it's male or female? If not.... how will you know what --- it is?

HAHA! I didn't forget!
The clowns were $34.99 a piece. My LFS also ships, so if you're interested, I can pass along their info to you.

Well, I've heard that when the yashia and pistol find them a place to burrow, that's pretty much where they stay, and it looks like yours has found a place in the back of your tank.
Some people luck out and theirs find a place right up front. Maybe you can take a chance and rearrange it's burrowing place?
Bicolor blenny's are great! Lots of personality! Maybe you should try one of those?

I figured it would probably be difficult to be able to s-e-x it right now. I was told that it was a juvi and that it would turn red when it matures. I'll be looking for your response!~
Thanks, as always, for your help with my wrasses!~

Hey Kat...very nice tank! I really like all the variety and movement you got going with it. Quick ?...have you had any trouble with the torch or the frogspan stinging your other corals? I know you moved them a couple of times...and I was told that they can extend to almost 6 in. and damage other corals...just curious if you found that to be the case. Thanks!

Thanks for the compliment!~
The frogspawn started getting a little too close to a colony of zoas and some of them weren't opening so I moved it further away and all seems fine so far. It is amazing how much they can expand and extend their tentacles, so if I run out of room with the frogspawn and run out of places to put it, I'll have to frag it!
The torch, it's still a small frag, so I haven't run into any problems with it yet. It was just fragged for me last week, but I know with the torch corals, their tentacles will get very long and flowy and if I notice any problems, I'll have to move it somewhere so that it doesn't hurt anything.

Bicolor blenny's are a lot of fun! Mine will eat anything I put in the tank; mysis, brine, marine cuisine, emerald entree, and even ORAglo pellets! He also grazes on algae on the glass, LR and shells of snails and hermits!
SOOOOO glad your yashia and pistol have chosen a spot where you can always see them!~
