    Nope is really very easy, just can't have a meal sized CUC around him as they will become one. He loves frozen foods while they're still frozen. I think because they help wear his beak down.

    I didn't really ask due to the thin black bars and brighter coloration so I guessed that is was a Occ Clown. I guess I'll have to ask.

    I looked at the site describing the difference and zoomed in on the pic it does seems that he is very likely a True Perc Clown.
    The price made me also not question my first guess as he was under $10 and Percs are usually more I thought.

    The newcommer got all the little ones except for Shadow off his tail for a while LOL other than that he doesn't seem to care...added more rock in there too....just small rubble like pieces to add to the biofiltration.

    The clown is fairly passive too...too funny both of the bigger fish that are supposed to be aggressive aren't.It's good but still kinda funny.

    New Addition!

    Well I picked up a Dispar Anthias today.
    They've had them a while at the LFS and had to get one...can't wait to add more but they'll need more swimming room for more than one so it'll do for now...they did have a very pretty male in (he was bright lavender) want it too.

    Here she is in the bag.

    Very pretty!! Looks strange to see him in there with mollies! haha since I usually see them in freshwater tanks. I hope he's a good fish for you!

    Thanks.

    Thank you.
    Yeah I know it's why I'm keeping a few of the 35 saltwater born Mollies I have....just to confuse people or make 'em do a double take. LOL
