    It sucks to have the luck of getting one that eats willingly only to have it go killer and have to get rid of it. Sorry to hear that.

    I would love to have one in my 180, but not sure if the Sohal would care for that.

    good looking fish.

    I feel at a loss. I either Keep the Idol and less fish stock Or remove the Idol and replace the fish...

    Sorry to hear, don't know what to tell you about your stocking situation. Just figure out what situation best fits your ideal for your tank and get behind it fully.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Very unfortunate RedGambit :cry:

    Such a hard fish to keep for any length of time. It really impressed me that you had such success with this fish. Just a magnificant fish to see in the wild, as well as the home aquarium.

    thats really unfortunate eric. be a shame to have to get rid of the really cool fish. but if its a detriment to the rest of the fish , well tough decision ahead of you. good luck with it all. cool thread too , i just caught up to it.
