Some daytime pictures of the Sailfin and 'friends'.



The four tangs and the Rabbit thats thinks hes a tang...



You might notice in many of the pics I have posted of the Sailfin, the Yellow is right behind him. The Yellow (Bubbles) has followed the Sailfin all day. I thought it was coincidence at first but I don't think so. Its kind of like he look up to him or something


I need some ideas for small fish. I have way too many big guys and not so many little guys. Really need some more variety. I have been considering an Emperor Angel but maybe instead a bunch of small fish would be nice.

Why not add a few wrasses, like a Mystery, Hooded Fairy, Sixline... Maybe some pygmy angels? Flame and Eibli, Lemon Peel..

Most of those are active swimmers, unlike the watchmen gobies and such..

That sailfin is gorgeous... I was drooling over the big one at Red Coral tonight..

Yeah I like your ideas. Maybe a few small angels would be nice (and easier) than a big one.

I definitely want a Wrasse but not until I sort out a screen for the top. I have been lazy with that.

A few more of the Sailfin

Getting his teeth cleaned



Size compared to my Naso

He is georgous Justin! Looks really healthy too. I really envy your reef lighting, it is so much easier to take pictures. Maybe I'll bring over my camera next time too.

I think the smaller angels are said to nip corals too, but there are some nice ones. We have a Eibli in our 90g, and he is quite a character.

Amazing pics Justins!! Really Really REALLY nice sailfin... the orange banding and speckles is so sweet! Definitely stoked for you.. I'd be photographing it just as much I think..

BTW, I meant hooded fairy, not hooded flasher... LOL

LOL...I figured that was the fish you meant. And they are very nice. I just worry about jumping at the moment.

He is very cool to photograph because he actually stays very still and watches the camera for the most part. He is very friendly...one of the nice things about getting a fish from someones tank.

I'm glad the sailfin is doing well in your tank. He looks so small in there compared to my tank. I wonder if he recognizes the hippo.
I've pretty much cut my feeding in half now that hes gone.

Yes I bet your camera is better than mine

Yes the smaller angels do nip corals sometimes I think. I will have to do some research first. Not going to be adding more fish for a bit I don't think anyways. No rush.
