Thanks both of you

Fish went into the DT yesterday and the Kole is starting to explore the whole tank. It's still name-less so I hope we'll see some unique characteristics soon

Bella the Gramma is still a bit shy, and needs to fatten up some. She was hiding in the DT rockwork from the Kole and not eating much. She's toying with NLS pellets and frozen, but only eating small bits, so I'll try some Cyclopeeze tonight as she liked that in the QT
I didn't want to leave her in the QT any longer to get her eating again as she's taken to hiding too much and I hope having other fish around will get her out more often
She's exploring a bit so fingers crossed she makes it

I've let the algae go a bit for tang food, so you'll see some fuzzies ...

No fish spots, just dirty glass :wink:

Go bigger !! :smile:
If we had a ground floor livingroom, I'd probably have setup something big enough for large tangs

Lol no can do. Maybe once I get my journeyman tickets then funds won't be an issue. But for now this is a nice size, and won't break the bank. I'd love to do a big like 4Lx3Wx2H tank in wall that be sweet lol not gonna happen anytime soon ;)

Things are looking up already
The Kole is all over the tank, zooming through all the swim-throughs and eating very well
Better yet, Bella came out and ate lots of Cyclopeeze, even with the other fish around

Claudia 12-04-2012 04:32 AM

Looking really good :)

Is he the only tang in the tank? I have a yellow tang that eats like a little piggy, loves seaweed strip on a clip. That Kole is beautiful.

Yup, the un-named Kole is the only tang we have
Hopefully it's character will inspire a name soon
It's not that purple, but more the typical copper/bronze/brown color
I'll have to get some 'full lighting' shots up

That Kole looks great! Nice to see him in the DT.
Not sure if you feed him any seaweed but I have one in my tank and also a starry blenny and I notice a marked increase in aggression in the Kole tang when I don't feed Nori on a clip every couple days. Once I put the clip in there they'll eat side by side and not fight anymore, it's really weird.

gregzz4 12-04-2012 08:34 PM

Thanks Claudia

daplatapus thanks for the insight
It looked like our Kole chased the Starry a couple times yesterday, then that was that - nothing since
I'll keep an eye out for issues
