Meet Albert! :)

Thought I would add my two girls I see you are a dog lover too.

 

They are beautiful! The critter who I caught licking another one was Abigail licking the dogs. Silly kitty

 

Cool addition, I love the bangaii cardinals.
I am thinking about getting mine a friend (female as I think mine may be male). I named mine Bishop and when I get a second it'll be Abbey.

 

Did I plant a seed? lol Funny my girlfriend named mine. She named it Charlie cause ya cant really sex it, and supposedly the name goes both ways:-/

 

Maybe LOL We went there and I told him what I can and can't have due to tank conditions. I pointed him out and hubby was all over it. He asked to name him because he never named a marine critter of mine. The next fish I get a friend has naming dibbs on it. It weird how they(friends) tell me its a waste of $$$ yet they want to be a part of it LOL;D They even went crazy when they saw my mag float glass scrapper. So easily amused.

 

Cool fish. They've had a bunch of tank raised at my LFS for a while, but I was not ready for one. I went back last weeknend and they were all sold out

Also, Matt Rogers had a thread about one a while back. Sexing them was discussed. I think Inwall75 posted something from an expert. Basically what I got out of it is put it in with known male. If they kill each other, it's a male, if not, female j/k don't do that

 

I should check that out. =p

 

I read this article on sexing, breeding and raising the fry of bangaiis
Reefs.org: Where Reefkeeping Begins on the Internet - Captive care and Breeding of the Banggai cardinal fish Pteragon kauderni

According to it I do have a male as his second dorsal fin is very long, it's nearly even with the top caudal fin...the whole square jaw thing is a bit harder for me to judge as they all seem to have a bit of a square jaw.

 

What a cutie!! I'm glad your husband likes him as well!

 

hi Albert!
