    Couldn't get a pic of the flasher he hides in the PVC when I get too close. The fairy isn't too shy though

    Gorgeous fairy, Logan!

    Do the fairy and flasher acknowledge each other behind the wall? No aggression?

    It somehow managed to get over to the flashers side today. All I've noticed is the fairy will get near and the flasher just freezes. He still looks a little stressed

    Awesome shot.
    You should definitely put the flasher first in the main, so he feels like home more first. Did you try feeding them?

    Good call! They both just ate a couple minutes ago

    It makes a world of difference when you're getting them to eat if a containment box is used.

    Congrats on their first bite! My McCosker eats nori off the veggie clip now.

    nice of the tangs to share :) lol

    they were both a lot more active after they ate, and the white bars on the flasher were pretty much gone. Haven't noticed any real aggression between the two, they're sleeping next to each other right now lol. The clown checks out the box but just looks curious, the wrasses don't dart away when she comes over.

    I'm gonna set the flasher free tomorrow morning, then the fairy that night probably.

    I can see why everyone loves these fish - they're very cool!

    Everything sounds pretty good man. Maybe wait an extra day to release though if you are still seeing signs of stress. Food will help IMO.

    Thanks, that's good idea I don't want to rush anything. I'll feed them again after work tomorrow and see how they're looking
