Pics of coralcat shark?

I'm thinking of getting a coralcat shark and wanted to see if anyone has a pic of it that you can post here. Thank You.

I had a deposit on one, but it died during the massive power outage this summer

These two I bought this summer. Unfortunately neither one of them made it. There was some problems with my tank that I wasn't aware of at the time. Very sad, I would like to try getting one again. I just haven't seen them in the LFS much.

what did you determine caused them to die?

Tony,
I think after checking everything in the tank, it was heat. I had a very large submersable return pump that was really heating the tank up and reducing the amount of oxygen in the tank. The tank temp was around 90 degrees. Unfortunately I didn't realize this until it was to late(my bad). I've since replaced the return pump with two pumps, one external and one submersable. Eventually I'll replace the submersable. Doing this dropped the temp. 10-12 degrees.

WOW, that blows, sorry man. I guess those things just happen. I guess the important thing is that we learn from our mistakes

you got it, I've been keeping saltwater tanks for 10years and I'm still learning.

Thanks for the pic, I've never seen it in my LFS. I wonder where I can find one?
