90 gallons of love. New pictures 10/4

I really enjoy Herbie!!!

 

Good luck!!

Thanks and yes they are busy bodies. Anything moving in the tank does not go unnoticed by this fish and any food gets eaten very quickly.

Absolutely very inquisitive.

No worries love hearing stories about fish.

Yes it is always a bit nerve racking adding a fish to an established clan but the Tang has finally accepted him and they all swim together with no aggresion.8)

Me too!! I will have to get some new shots of him. I also have my LFS on the hunt for some more.(They get the Carribean version all the time but I want more like Herbie);D8)

 

Melarunus are the best! I doubt Ill ever run a tank without one. From my untrained eye it looks like yours is a male, the females I read are more aggressive.

 

In general, female wrasses are always more aggressive than the males. And yes, it is a male.

 

Heres some more recent shots while not completely at the level I am used to the tank has improved so much since the addition of my new skimmer and increased love.Almost beat the Bubble algae/Cyano. Just a few small patches here and there.









Heres another for you Herbie fans. You can see his horns.lol



Just installed my new Hydor Smartwave.So far I have absolutely zero clicking noises coming from the Koralias and has been a wonderfull addition.

 

Great pics, Is that a squamosa next to the maxima?

 

Yes it is!!Its about three pounds.8)
The algae around Herbies barnacle needs a good scrubbing but he bites the bristles off my toothbrush when I try to do it. I guess it grows there because of him pooping because it doesn't grow anywhere else in the tank..

 

I attack you to if you came into my bathroom with a brush during "my time" Looks similar to my clam too. Love that blenny, any word from your LFS guy on others?

 

Not yet they are still looking. It would probably be faster if I swam to Costa Rica and caught my own.LOL

 

How did you beat the bubble algae?
