Tonight's the night!!

My false perc's have been in QT for 4 weeks waiting patiently to go into the 65....they're dripping right now.... sooo excited!! (Yeah, my Friday night highlight LOL) :smilecol:

Well done on QTing pics would be great

In the 4 weeks I've had them I can NOT take a better picture than 2 orange blurs!! They just don't photograph well! Oh well...they looked happy in the moonlights this morning before I left for work :)

Ok! I got a shot, not a great one, but you get the idea!

Nooo... :) This is the 65 they are in now :) the QT is just an 8 gal biocube with sand and some macroalgae.

I keep looking them over, hoping NOT to see ANY patches of white or anything weird! I worry because the larger one had a wound on her side when I first got her (him/her....whatever, it will be Her) that healed beautifully within 2 days of being in my QT tank - I think she had been bitten by a larger fish in the tank she was in at the LFS - and she was always very skinny but she's starting to fill out now. I've been feeding mysis and formula1 pellets with brine as a treat but next time I go to Town I'd like to pick up a frozen "more complete" formula. Any recommendations?

Cool i thought it looked a LITTE nice for a QT tank. way to go nice work. do keep this tank (QT) up and running full time?

I have a hard time getting my fish to take formula 1. I personally try to change up what I feed every second day and every 2 weeks I add this to my food.

Try adding frozen cyclopeze to the mix. Mine love it. I have been feeding mine Formula 1, mysis for almost a year. I added frozen cyclopeze to the mix about 6 months ago & they started spawning soon after. They are very healthy and spawn every few weeks. They also get bits of squid and prawn when I feed their host & the female eats nori from time to time. The only change I plan to make is to go from Formula 1 to New Life Spectrum.
