Puffer, Blue Throat, Lions, PT will be returned to the 75FOWLR after the Marine Betta heals enough for him to be moved into the 155. And the PBT has had a chance to make it's self at home in the 75. That little PT can be a little terror.
He used to chase the larger tangs when he was in the 155, and killed 4 yellow tangs his size. So he has to be the very last one into the 75.

The 155 has 5 lary tails, 3 or 4 stocky, 2 unknown anthias, maroon, clarki clowns, 4 chromis, 1 unidentified damsel, PT, YT, & Red Sea SF tangs, McCosker, Bali Lubbocks, Red Head Salon Fairy, and the infamous Bluesided wrasse, and a Banggai Cardinal. I think that is all of them. Two more wrasse coming within the next few weeks. There is suppose to be a pink spot goby but I haven't seen him since I put him in the tank along with the lubbocks & the red head. Plenty of hiding places, but I am beginning to worry since it is a week now.

As much a terror that he/she is I am so happy to have him/her back!!!!!! I honestly & truly missed that little bugger!!!!!
He/she is such a strong little fish that I will probably be dead, and he/she will still be swimming around.

Think about this he/she lived in PetWorks for months with lateral line disease, until I felt strong enough to deal with my tank. I brought him home, had it for about 7 or so months, then it went to you for another 4 months, and now back to me. All these different systems, and never a sign of ich or stress. He/she is truly quite the little trooper. Thank you for letting me have it back Jon!!!

2 New additions

These are the 2 new guys I picked up yesterday from drperetz.
Thank you Gene for the beautiful new members of my happy family.
Pics don't do them justice, especially since I couldn't coxed them in to being still.

The first wrasse looks like young Filamented Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus filamentosus).

I found these two pics of the filamented flasher. The fish I got from drperetz looks nothing like these.


My picture taking is not good at all

The fish you posted has multiple filaments, lunate tail and blue stripes.

LiveAquaria

Excerpt: The Filamented Flasher Wrasse, also known as the Whip-fin Fairy Wrasse

Ok, we're both right.

You and Gene!!! I have nothing to do with this. I just enjoy their beauty. Only reason I have for knowing what species anything is, is purely for the care.

Anyway the last two came from drperetz. Next guy I want to add is a long nose hawk.
