Operation "Bye Bye Bi" has swung into effect. Phase 1- bottle trap, Bait- nori(to minimize civilian casualties).

I caught my solar wrasse in about five minutes.

I'm sorry but that's kinda funny.

I don't know if you remember a couple years back I tried fishing out my sixline (who is far too clever to fall for a trap). First of all I felt like an idjit at the fishing store asking for ONE 1/4" hook but baiting it with mysis was .. well, interesting in itself AND I caught everyone at least once ... except for the sixline.

He was far too suspicious of the mysis on a string. "Ooh, I want that ... but something about it is off. Here tang tang tang, come check it ouuuuuut" And of course the tang was all too happy to oblige. "Hoboy! A mysis on a STRING! YAY!" ..

I thought about doing that too as I am a fly-fisherman and know how to tie flies. I know I could match the hatch and have an ice fishing ultralight rod and reel. I just thought I would get flamed hard for trying to "hook my fish" (I would go "barbless)

My bi-color is still in the tank

Admittedly I havnt been trying that hard to get him. There has and will be a couple large fish orders at the shop. To avoid any temptation to bring anything home I figured a full tank is best. I did a water change and glass clean today so while things are looking good I snapped a few pics.

Your right Ron! Perhaps a strawberry grouper?

The order with the tunze products is finally arriving today (according to the trucking company), so hopefully I will be back in the tank today causing some major waves

. Little did my fish know that their New Years resolution is to loose weight by exercising more. More pics from yesterday.

They can take up to 3 weeks right? never kept zoa's before.....sorry for going off topic. Yoour tank looks amazing.....you should accept..... i'll volunteer to break in your tunze's you know...make sure everything works good for a few months
