ok so finally got rid of my large Lion Fish while he was in the bag I finally got to measure him 8 1/12 inhces ... I sold him to a guy localy for 75$... now that I have got rid of him I can now expand and not worry about my spotted mandarine getting eatin... for some reason my moray eel doesnt bother any of my fish he is very very very docile, even will come to my hand whenever I put it in the tank and jsut rubs up against me its kind of odd. I think he knows i ussually have food.

What sized tank is this? Mandarins need docile tank mates and LOTS of copepods to eat. I am just throwing that out there in case you didn't know. What all is in the tank and what size is this tank?

well I was aware of this but thanks for the heads up!!!
75 Gallon tank
1 saddle back clown
1 maroon clown
1 moray eel small very docile though... (temporary holding for a friend) but he is cool, might keep him not sure yet...
1 copperbanded butterfly
1 lawnmower bleeny
I have some hair algae in my tank and its covered in wee little white dots or copepods. I have this other algae thats this ball of looks like yarn cant remember the name of it but its covered in copepods too! every few days my tank goes through a copepod explosion and my glass gets covered with them so I jsut wipe them off and go about my buisness.
