In know your pain. I finally got a Copperband Butterfly to live (about 3 months now) and it turns out to have a weakness for red open brains, starting with the most colourful and expensive ones of course.

Good luck catching the six-line. At least my CBB was slow and easily netted. He's in a new tank without any brain corals.

Sorry to hear, I had a fourline and it had bad attitude, the little holy terror fish. And I had a mystery wrasse and it came in as a close second. Never thought I would have anymore but, well never say never I guess.

Sorry to hear about the damage the 6 line has caused you. I have had one for amount 1 1/2 years now with no damage to any corals but my flame angel terrorized him so bad at first that he had no time to get at my coral. The wrasse has been good for keeping my bristle worm population under control thou. Now the angel and wrasse are unseparetable.

Mine won't touch a thing except what I feed... he is so fat and well fed... maybe he does not get enough to eat? Apparently "wrasse" means greedy or something like that in latin.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
