Beautiful. I bought one years ago that brought in marine velvet and you can guess the rest. No QT because the local reefer didn't bother telling me it was sick until I had paid and put the fish away in my cooler bag. Never gonna do another Atlantic blue but it is a beauty.

My biggest bully is a Sohal, although the Lavender tang & rabbitfish are sometimes @holes too with new fish.

Mine is the Hippo Tang; does whatever he pleases and hammers any fish that gets in his way.

It WAS a bicolor angel, but he's since been sent to the LFS. I now have no bullies, everyone lives in harmony!

For now.

My Kole Tang. He tries to "take on" my mag-float, and not romantically but goes white, erects his dorsal fin and bluff charges it. This is just a new behaviour as the two have co-existed peacefully since the beginning of this tank.

My previous ocellaris clown was a bully, but only to me. Any time my hand went in the tank he would bite me. I learned a trick though, he was scared of fish nets so I would just through a net in the tank first and he would hide in the rocks until the net was removed.

Was a Talbot's Damsel. Lost a few wrasse and gobies because of him. But the Female Saddleback Clown has taken his spot and calmed him right down. And she only pesters the male. Nothing serious at all.
