Doh! How did I miss your signature. I guess I need more coffee.

Really strange though, they do not seem like fish that would spook that easily.

I think the fish feel safer at the store because there's more of them in the tank.

Yeah as long as your system can handle the load.

My fox face was stresse and half black for 5 months. Then when I added my yellow tang he started coming out and regained his yellow color

I think she was joking.

Because they are constaintly exposed to people walking around near their tanks.

At home we arnt glued to our tanks 12 hours a day, eventho we would like to be.

+1 Once we get them home they aren't exposed nearly as much to people. Leash included in her reply that her tank is in a high traffic area. IMO, that helps tons.
