Which ones did you have, Doug?

I'm thinking I might look for a C. solorensis or a C. lineatus after I move and set up a larger tank. I'm amazed how pretty these fish are.

If I have my ID correct on the one shown here, he should top out at around 3" (according to Fenner). Right now he's about 2-3/4" or thereabouts, maybe 3" already, hard to say.

He's a very outgoing fish, very sociable unless startled. He can completely disappear into the rockwork, emerging at some random point somewhere else. Sometimes he sleeps in crevasses, other times he completely buries himself in the sand. I saw him bury himself once just before the lights turned off, he just literally swam into the sand like it was nothing.
