HL649 is on a distinguished road

As of 8:00 Am this morning it is sitting at:

Temp: 26.0°; it varies between 25.0° and 26.5° daily
pH: 8.21; varies between 8.15 and 8.35 daily
Salinity: 1.026; doesn't vary

When I got him I acclimated him over 3 hours and he accepted my tank with out any issues at all. I have heard that the key to keeping them alive is to acclimate them real slow. It worked for me.

Let me know how it goes with him.

He's here acclimating now.
Wow, I didn't realize they got so big!
When he's expanded he's probably 8" I imagine.

Thanks again
