    well he was doing really well then got ich and quit eating haven't seen him today so guess the hermits and snails are all fat and happy for a while now

    everything else in the tank is doing really well though, the coris is starting a color shift and turning black looks really cool I'll get a pic up sometime

    Sorry for the loss. The nicest fish seem to be the most fragile. K+.

    Powder Blues are one of my favorites . I must have gone lost a dozen over the years. They are just so sensitive to anything and once they get iche its to late. RIP

    yeah I read alot of things about them being really touchy, oh well wife wanted it more than I did, LFS just got a pair of Achilles tangs in so if I get one of these jobs I just interviewed for I may pick one up though I know their a really touchy tang also
