I had been eying the little guy for some time now, after reading Marie's build I finally made the jump. He got in a little scuffle with my 2 spot bristle tooth tang to start with but has joined the rest of the crew very well. Even swims around with the coral beauty, which I never thought would happen.

Couple new photos (Actinics and right after I fed), have been pretty busy with school so the tank has been neglected .

The zoa tank has been getting some annoying macro algae that grows in-between the polyps and my attemps of a clean up crew have been thwarted by some still unseen pistol/mantis. I don't want to get a tang, anyone have any ideas? Also If anyone is need of some cheato shoot me a PM I have an over abundance of this stuff.

Thanks Doug, it's much better is person my camera tends to wash out most of the color. Odd that you said that though I had a buddy over last night and he used those EXACT same words to describe it .

Thanks, everything is coming back from my idiot cause crash quite nicely. The copperband has been in there for about 2 months, eats brine and asptasia regularly. Couldn't ask for a better one, he hasn't touched the zoas or the clams at all.

nice. I had one in the 90 for a couple months...far as I know my uncle still has him (I sold him the entire setup)....thinking about one for the 75 but don't know. More than likely we'll just go with more small fish than any medium-large ones....except the yellow eyed Kole...have to have it

They are a great looking fish and I understand why they call them butterfly fish now! When they feed they stick there arse right out in the air, looks like a fancy underwater butterfly.

Couple new photos:
