Sounds like they would be the smallest fish your tank! I'm going to let the advertisement sit there for a while and see what options are presented. I would like to find a home larger than 200 gallon.

Im sure Brad can answer this for you but as far as I know, they do not breed in aquariums. In the wild they go to deep waters to breed.

Buddies?....I would say that they tolerate one another. No, they don't breed. There's good natured chasing every now and then.

Of course, if you want to see them "live", just tune in...

Really? Both of them? It would be neat to see them go to someone I know so well. You could keep me appraised of how they are doing.

I know you really love your corals. I would want to warn you that the male Trigger fragged a digitata for me the other day. He doesn't bite them or anything...he just gets a good head-of-steam going and the coral doesn't get out of the way in time. (Digitatas are fragile...)

I wouldn't expect any problems with any other fish.

I'll have to talk to the Boss. And She's in Calgary until tomorrow night.

Blue Throats are one of my all time favourite fish and those would be so cool looking to see in Jason's tank! Jason if you get them, pics,pics,pics !
