It is a blue sponge attached to Porites coral. I had it in my Nano tank and it started to degrade, put it in the reef tank and it has made a nice recovery.

I will snap a new picture in the next few days.
Thats good that he is eating. I cant believe that people would import fish like that

looks great. btw does that niger trigger bother that cleaner shrimp? i always heard from a trusted lfs that you are not able to keep trigger with shrimps because they might eat them.

Like what? Most fish are imported, very few are tank raised.

As of yet, he has not. Originally I bought a peppermint shrimp (because they are cheaper) to make sure the trigger would not eat him. So far he has had two shrimp in the tank with him for about 4 months. He is only about 4 inches long now, however, and I know he may change his mind about being friends with him as he grows. We shall see. He is actually a very docile trigger. He will eat out of my hand. Believe it or not the Maroon Clown is the mean one in my tank. He is the most territorial (within 12 inches of his anemone is his terratory)
