Re: The Bluespot Club

Basser, your pics make me miss my original Bluespot. He is really cute!

Eko, your top cover is great, I hope it holds up. I almost used velcro closures on mine, but went with the screen frame instead. Where did you get your mesh from? Link?

I agree that patches indicate stress, from whatever the source. Reducing stress is important.

I have a question for everyone who has/had these guys. Maybe I have asked before, but I forget. What salinity are you keeping them in? I have talked with a few suppliers and they seem to keep their salinity quite low (like 1.015-1.020). Just curious more than anything. When I have kept these guys successfully in the past (pre 2007), my tank was 1.021. This past year, I have kept it at 1.024-1.025.
