Ya, I noticed that he carries sand around in his mouth.

Not very big yet, he's about 2". He's also pretty shy so far. Whenever we feed the tank he runs and hides but once I walk way he's out looking for whatever is left of the mysis that the other fish didn't eat yet.

Nice lloking fish. Are his fins a little ich'y? (is that even a real word

)

Looks like the fins are a little icky but triggers are a strong bunch, I give it a week and there will be no more visible sympthoms. Nice looking fish by the way.

Ya, he might have a bit of ich. My other fish (other then my puffer) seem to be somewhat immune to any ich in my tank, but since he's new he might of got some. Hopefully as he gets used to the tank etc. the ich will go away.

Thats how my tank works. New fish come in, always get ich and then fight it off in a week or two with good feedings and water quality. Usually takes about 2-3 rounds of fighting off ich before all signs are gone.

Nice fish BTW!

Yup, I like my fish. Was just having my morning coffee before I headed out to work.
