    I was just curious as to what experiance others have had with these fish. I purchased one saturday and have been checking water quality daily am0 nitrates0 nitrates 0 ph 8.4 sg 1.025. The tank is 55g I have 20 lbs live rock and 25-30 base that has been in the tank with the live rock for 2 months and corraline alge is beginning to grow on it ,aqua c skimmer ,cheato, fluval 404. These is also a small percula clown1.5in. So far the fish seems to be doing great it isnt shy and constantly is eating alge off of the rocks. so far won't eat brine or mysis (at least while it is floating in the water maybe it is eating off of the rocks when they settle.

    Spell check didnt work sorry about the spelling.

    I have a lemonpeel angle in my tank that I have had for around 4 months it eats like a pig, Lemonpeels are primarily algae eaters so try offering it some dried nori ( dried seaweed ) on a algae clip ;) ....... John

    I have 3 large hermits that havew been doing a number on the algae so i am pulling them to the fuge for a while. How old was your tank when you added it? Should I see a rise in test numbers as the bacteria builds up? so far 4 days no change.
