The file fish is the cat's pajamas, but me thinks the damsels won't look so cute to you in a few weeks time.

You give it weeks? I'd give it 5 days...striped damsels are, IMO, the worst ever fish. I had one once, I built a harpoon and tried to stab it to get it out of my tank. I ended up draining the tank to get it.

+1 my first fish was a domino damsel, beautiful little fish but mean a hell. I had to tear my little nano apart to swap him for our clown cause he killed my pep shrimp. I watched it happen and immediately grabbed the net. I was too late though lol. in a 400+ gallon tank i dont think that will be the issue though

Hope your filefish doesn't take a to you zoa's like mine did.

Brett, loved the video. How is your tank looking soooo good already? I'm starting to feel anxious about my upcoming tank and being able to "keep up with the Jones's" as they say.

Lol thanks Mark... The little sticks have such a long way to go but I'm enjoying seeing the new buds get bigger.

The stripeys have always been one of my favorite fish and Kien's 4-stripe is my inspiration. Yeah it's a risk but even I get to take risks. So many of you guys have angels and other risky fish so I thought I'd join the pack. I just did it with a pair of $7 fish =) My gramma is so active now I love it. I'll report back soon... heck I still have 7 chromis and they school quite often. Maybe I have the small-fish free pass with this tank?

Ok day one was ok!

Wrasses just love (running at) the filefish. He is hunting pods and they know it so yeah they'll need some time before they're friends. Fascinating fish to watch tho and I never knew they actually had a rasp-like body but now the name makes sense! Haven't notice him eat any aiptasia but he's still pretty cautious moving about.

Striped demons are incredibly fast so I'm praying they fit in nicely. Only infraction I saw was against my corky finger. Little jackass took a little peck and in went all the polyps (something that almost never happens). I watched them for a few hours today tho and there was no repeat. They are tiny and yet so bold!

Everyone's got a few days before I bring my new maculaceps home from Golds. My fairy fishmother must have been watching over me when she sent me out on Saturday. They haven't had one come in in over 7 months apparently and I spotted him hiding in one of the top tanks. Only because I've been obsessing for a few days was an id so easy even with his pale appearance.
