When did you get your cleaner? I had one to help with Ich on my boxfix and Hippo tang. It was fun to watch most of the fish stop to get cleaned. The smaller damsels didn't seem too interested. It seemed happy eating flake, frozen and live brine shrimp. However, a month later I went on holidays for a week and it was gone when I got back. Do you have lots of fish for it to clean?

This guys new today, I've got another (without the red finnage) that I got about a month back. Not sure on the new one yet, the existing eats anything I toss in the tank (Loves to go after the weekly drop of kent zoomax ?!?!?!? Must think he's a clam / brain).

If you don't mind where did you get your fish from and are there still any available? I have to make a run to Calgary next weekend? Are they both in the same tank?

Ocean city was the source of this one... They had another, but I'm willing to bet it's already gone (was another shopper drooling over it while I was there).

Yup same tank.

"Protected" as in listed on Appendix I or II, or "protected" in that the numbers exported out of Hawaii are limited?

I seem to find conflicting info as to whether Labroides phthirophagus is endemic to only Hawaiian waters (most documentation seems to claim this, but I found at least one site that claims "Federated States of Micronesia").
