Copperband butterfly fish

Good to hear that the aggression died down and awesome the CBB is eating already.

the mirror trick does work really well.

ya its kinda weird that things went so well but i'm still keeping a close eye on things. I didnt have to do the mirror trick this time.

Get a sump instead and leave the canister out of the equation. I have a canister filter but it is because I don't have any room for a sump with my Osaka aquarium. Dumb desing of the furniture. I am replacing it with a phosban reactor...much more usefull!

If I had the choice I would get a sump any time. For the copperband...he'll eat all the aiptasia and then probably will starve to death. That's what happen to most copperband.

Mine is the boss of the aquarium and eat like a pig, I guess that's why he's doing well. Try to give him some mussels or oyster cut in half. They love that and it is good food for them. I give quite a bit of these to my copperband along with live white worms.

Mine is now so big that I sometime think that my 75 gallons is too small. They get quite large.

on the flipside of things does anyone in the red deer area know where a guy could get a decent 120 gallon tank and cannister for it ( i will also use the one i have on my 55 gal.) around the red deer area. You guys have made me feel like a douche because of the tank size thing so i'm gonna dip into the wedding fund and try to find a bigger tank thanx guys lol
