    These are my new additions to my 75 gallon tank...since the death of Kelsey, my Yellow Tail Stingray!!!:cry:
    They are a breeding pair, that have settled in nicely in my surface skimmer from an old skimmer that I left in the tank due to the tunicates living inside on side of the box. Well, Bonny and Clyde decided that the other side of the box was ideal for them to hopefully begin to breed!
    Bonny, the female, is the larger one and has gold bands whereas her male counterpart is much smaller and has white bands!

    Nice looking pair CR.

    A little "Barry White" while the blue actinics are on wouldn't hurt.

    Best of luck with the new couple!

    Ah, my fav's! Those are a really nice pair! Love the color on the female, outstanding! I wish I had bought two of them when I got my first maybe I would have gotten lucky and I would have a pair now!

    Looking good.

    Male will darken with age.

    Then you can expect seeing eggs about every 8-10 days or so. :)

    Enjoy them.
