My new 150gallon

Lol mine started getting flashy with me tonight. After feeding I watch the tank for a while and he paced back and fourth showing me up, I wish I woulda got it on video

 

Nice video. Your tank and fish look great. All you guys with the achillies are making me jealous.....I want one too.

 

Thanks, maybe down the road? Its all good now but I heard some horror stories bout keeping these guys happy and healthy. Just gotta take it day by day.

 

So there must have been a fight sometime between my purple and achillies, and the achillies got pretty roughed up on what looks like rockwork. He is still eating well, but he is pretty banged up, and his right eye is cloudy. Lets hope he has a fast recovery.

 

My purple and sohal had a good spat a few weeks ago when I first got the purple. both were pretty scratched up, but since then, we have had a very peaceful co-existance and all wounds have healed. the sohad had numerous scratches and the purple had a good puncture wound. you cannot tell on either now except for a faint scar on the purple.

Likely that is what it ended up as. the final drag out fight for dominance. if they are like mine, Sohal is the boss and the purple is the enforcer.

 

lol, purple the enforcer sounds about right. It almost looks like they were fighting and the achillies was to close to the rocks, and well picked a fight with the rockwork. Poor guy he looks horrible.

 

Looks great, hope your guy pulls through

 

Thanks alot, I hope he pulls through as well, he got his name outta the whole ordeal. I decided on scarface!

 

day 2 of recovery for my achillies, and he is looking a 100% better than he did yesterday. He is still eating like a pig, maybe even more today lol.

 

New additions

So I pickedup a cleaner shrimp about a week ago, I had a fire shrimp as well, but he didnt make it through the first night of being in the tank. Also small male Blue Jaw Triggerfish a few days ago. I couldnt pass him up at the store, I have always wanted a trigger (I love how they swim), but my first experience didnt end well, so I searched for the "least aggressive" trigger, and so far a few days in the tank he is behaving. My purple didnt like his arrival, but after a day they calmed down. No major fighting as of now in the tank, hopefully it will stay peaceful. Also great news the Achillies has completely recovered from his fight with the rockwork, he had me scared but we are good to go.
