@ Spammie33 ... what do you feed your horseshoe? Never had one...jst wondering how they are to have in a tank?
Is this a particular type, coz it looks small as compared to the tangs, or is it gonna become much bigger?
I feed him squid, brine/mysis shrimp, and formula pellets... Since I am not sure that he is feeding off the organisms in the sand, I like to take him out and feed him separately to make sure. He specially likes the pellets for some reason. Haha.
To be honest, I wouldn't recommend having him in your tank even if its small, they dirty your tank a lot, your water gets extremely cloudy and takes a couple of hours to start clearing up. Whenever they're out they like to shift the sand around, also you have to make sure your rocks are placed solidly in your sand so he doesn't knock them down while he passes by.
He gets much bigger! Over a foot wide, I will have to get rid of him once he starts getting large unfortunately. I've had him for over 3 months.
On the plus side, they do shift your sand around and give it that "clean look" and they look cool haha.
