![]() Very, very few success stories. Doofus is a major exception and not the rule. Very much the ick-magnet. If its the only tang in the tank, your chances are increased.

![]() There is an Achilles primer on Reef Central you should read. Most success seems to be with bigger specimens and tanks in the 300g range.

![]() I had mine for a little over six years but it should have lasted at least 3 times that long.
I had troubles for the first year with repeated hypo treatments for ick and finally used copper and never had that problem again. When it did die, I had no warning signs and never did find why it died. |
