Check out what the wife helped me pick out today! LUCK ME! They look awsome in there!

Orange Shoulder Tang, and a female Lyretail Anthias.

The Anthias picture doesn't do her justice, she is SO bright orange and pink that you can see her from the other end of the room when you first step in the house!

Yeah, I've heard they like to die...not good! So far he is eating fine with the rest of the fish. Did you figure out why your died?

Did you figure out why your died? i beleived it to be brooks unfortunely ,once they show signs of this paresite there is no reversal.each died 24 hrs apart from each other.luckily I had them saparated from the rest of my main tank.if your fish was in the store long enough(normally 2 weeks) they have a good chance survival.if yours stops eating remove her from the tank immediatly to a qt and copper treat her.it may be a chance to save her but no garentees

Tyler,

I missed the B-day man. Looks like Claire took care of you though. Nice fish, love the colors. They will be a nice addition to your reef. Keep us posted.
