Default ELVIS is a year old

Well in my tank anyway. I know that this is not really a huge deal except that these fish have such a poor track record of surviving even more that a month in captivity. For the record I did not order this fish but was asked if I would give it a try when it came in on a shipment and was at the store when I was having some other fish shipped up. He lives in a 190g tank with a huge (roughly 12-14") blonde Naso Tang (Tank) - a large ( 10+") Conspic Angel, a Goldflake Angel, a Maroon Clown a Helfrichi Firefish and a Mandarin. He eats EVERYTHING. Nori, frozen, flake, pellet, and his favorite is clam. He is probably a good 6" tall and about the same long if you don't count his top banner. He is a tough guy too - got the crap kicked out of him by my SOB yellow tang when I tried to put him in my 230g tank then he was OK for about 2 months then fin rot set in and he had virtually no tail or bottom fin. He is now fully healed from that and fat and bossy.
Just thought I would share a somewhat success story. Here is an older picture of him - please excuse the dirty glass.
