Margined Coralfish (Photos Added)

Very nifty fish, however not much info available online so it seems. Other then its hardier, easier to get to eat and more disease resistant and rarer then its cousin the Copperband Butterflyfish. I will be picking up this beauty tomorrow from the Rhinelander Facility of LiveAquaria/Divers Den.

Almost a whopping 6" big!

Anyone that has experience with this fish care to share? Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

WOW.... Lucky you are.... to have the tank to keep it in and to live so close to Diver's Den....

Beeeeauuuutiful fish.

 

Thanks... The drive is over an Hour and Half, But well worth the price of shipping. and It saves about 10 bucks. lol. And it leaves the fish with less of a shipping stress.

After talking to one of the reps. The fish should be compatible with all my fish except one. My Moorish Idol.

 

Beware the wrath of Beaker!!!

 

I was surprised reading about your tank.... a 6" fish in a 120 gallon??? You know far better than I, as I am still a noob IMHO, but I was surprised that a 120 was bigger enough for a fish that big. Guess I've got more learning to do...

Its for my 90 FOWLR. LA/DD says min tank size is 50g.

 

Heres the Quick Stats:

 

Wow again... I'm learning... heck I started 3reef about 1 year ago... asking questions darn near continuously and I am just now getting to the point that I feel my tank is set up correctly. Partly my fault because I want to tear every piece of information apart and understand everything... but I am getting there.

SO you are lucky on a third thing.... having a 120 and a 90!!!

If you are married, lucky on a 4th thing... a wife patient enough to let you have both!!!

All the fish are different in the type of tank they need, some dont need alot of swimming space. others do. some need length, and some need height or both.

lol I wouldnt call it luck ... just alot of hard earned money spent... and without a significant other ... I can do that quite well.
