Family doc said I was pretty much 33% cajones haha .

He never went after anything in the 165g so it wasn't hard adding him to the new tank, if only he ate mojeno's then I would be set! Doug have a full size of your avatar, looks like a pretty epic shot!

Buahha nice find Brett didn't even see that, looks like he's fish burp'in!

I've always been envious of people that have good luck with copperbands.....Ive tried twice and failed......its an added bonus that he doesnt eat anything that he's not supposed to......

I do have an enlarged version....I cant take credit for the picture........the credit goes to Josh (Jdigital)......I can remember when he got this pic.....he was over taking some shots for my totm thread.......he was taking shots and I was watching the tank......the two tangs swam towards each other, parallel to each other and then flared at each other.....just then I heard the click.....I said to Josh.... "did you get that man?......and he said..."I think so?"......anyway heres the pic.....

New rule: Never "flip a coin" as the deciding factor on adding a fish, majestic angelfish in a zoa tank IS A BAD IDEA!!@!##. We ended up ripping the whole tank appart after he started munching on my palys, we also decided to snag the yellow tang due to aggression.

Picked up a few pieces of liverock from Kevin @ RC, heres the day after result.

It sounds like you could have used a fish trap!! I know where you can find one BTW!

Nice tank BTW, looking ELITE as usual :-D Oh and thanks for the frag!
