They were pretty cool, the purple from the illumagics would make them all that much better as well. I dont think those things ever hid either? Anthias seem to take a while to get used to you and then when guests come around they hide again

yeah they were really active fish and didn't dart away when you came close to the tank, hmmm I think I may get them instead of the anthias

I was looking at the pics online i swear i didn't rememeber them being green ontop

Yeah, I had 3 of those in a 4footer about 10 years back and they bullied a picasso trigger 5 times their size.

You used to have some awesome zoas in that frag tank

nah nothing really, the brown is going and the green is coming, will get a CUC in there in the next few weeks I guess. Still havent done the weir, something else I will get around to.

Usually I go full steam ahead with setting up tanks, this one, dunno, just not keen to blow loads (lol) of dosh getting it done; im trying to build a gaming rig pc to replace my HTPC, which is an OK gaming rig, just doesnt cut it so putting funds into that ;) I just keep telling the wife " the PC will run so much better if I get a 850w PSU and an ATI HD6970 video card, you'll be able to play ALL your HD videos on the new PC!!"
