Default Update

Well that was easy So I was expecting this 1-2 hour, arms soaking wet, a few bad words and getting really ticked off attempt after attempt before I would actually catch the emperor.

I ended up basically catching him on the first try I know he only comes out of hiding to eat so I poured some mysis into the tank and in one quick move I swooped the net under him and then I literally almost fell over (in shock) when I realized he really was in the net I have tired this in the past many many many many times and it has never worked before. I actually said "Holy (insert bad "S" word here) I can't believe I just caught him" It even took me a few seconds to realize he really was in the net, I was all like "He can't be in there that was too easy" but there he was, so over to the reef tank he went. FYI my 2 tanks are right across from each other with just a few feet separating them.

So I'm happy to say the emperor seems to be setting into his new home nicely. He hid for a few minutes and now he's swimming out in the open front and center. Best of all he's not getting picked on and he's not picking on anyone. Let's hope it stays that way and lets hope he doesn't like Steve's zoos.
