Well I just finished acclimating the new fishies. THEY ARE AWESOME!!!!!
I have NEVER seen a fish with as much color as the Regal Angel. She is already picking Pineapple sponges off the back glass. I am relieved to see that she is not to freaked out. The CBB is already steaking out the tank. I expected both fish to be very reclusive. But they are out and about. Jose has attacked both of them. But they kinda just looked at him like "you are a jawfish, not a hawkfish" He just perches on teh live rock and swoops down on them. He is one peculiar little guy. the angel is biiger than what I ordered, and she is very fat. She really is a great looking specimen. The butterfly, is a very cool fish. I have never seen one in person. They have a totally different swimming pattern than most fish. Well both look very good, and I am happy with the livestock that
Blue Zoo Aquatics-Live saltwater Fish, Corals, Invertebrates and Food offers.
I also ordered 20 turbo snails, 20 nerite snails, and 20 cerith snails. They all arrived in good condition. Althought I am used to snails being shipped in water. These were in a bag with wet paper towels, but they held up fine.
The urchin I ordered was in a bag that totally leaked, there was not a drop of water in the bag. But I put him in the tank and he started exploring. I also got a tiny little cleaner shrimp. Over all I am very pleased with bluezooaquatics livestock.
Let hope Jose learns to play nice, and remember he is a Jawfish.
