My Mexican Look Down Fish $85.


I brought him home spent the afternoon acclimatizing him. Released him into the tank and my Queen Trigger came over and bit his eyes out.

He ended up being nothing more than an expensive dinner.

Oh ya everyone at the LFS told me that they should get along no problem.

For me it would have to be a small clown goby and a small skunk cleanershrimp. I acclimatized both fish and dropped them in the clown goby found a spot to hide, saw him around a month or so later and haven't seen him since. The small cleaner shrimp was a little too small and my clowns and flame angel ate all of his legs before he even hit the ground

definately my diamond goby, he was perfect in my 55 but when i moved him to my 110 he decided it was his job to bury my favia corals as well as my symphilia on a daily basis. still tryin to figure out a way of catching him:sad:

For me it has been two Naso tangs. I purchased two over the last two months. One lasted in QT for approx 2 days and the other about 3 weeks. The one of three weeks hurt. I was starting to feed by hand and making a new buddy and then... DEAD. I've given them a break for a while. Maybe try in another 6 months or so. The first one I believe was really sick from the get go, but the second one had me baffled.

Cleaner wrasse. He lasted less than 24 hours - when I found him all dried out on the carpet about five feet away from my COVERED tank!

It's a toss up for me. My Cherub angle that was anything but angelic to my clams or the Prix Line wrasse that killed two Candy Basselets, yea I know I should have known better on the second one. At least he leaves both of my cleaner wrasse's alone.

Wanted to reopen this thread. Anyone have any insight on Green Star Polyps? Are they a purchase that you've enjoyed?

Nice color and a fast grower. Maybe to fast for some peoples liking as it may become invasive. If you are interested in trying some I have a chunk of it I would sell for 5 bucks.:biggrin:

Many people hate GSP because it will spread over any touching rocks but I love the color and if it's isolated, I think it brings awesome color to a "chunk of rock"!

I love (isolated) GSP. I set out some interestingly shaped rocks for it to grow on.
