Re: My 265 gallon in wall reef.

I see that it's a peaceful fish but, reef compatible with caution.
How does yours do?
I read they will eat snails and other crustations.

Well I will be watching the little turkey, I got a shipment of hermits and snails today. And low and behold I looked and the hog fish came up and plucked a new hermit right from its shell... The hogfish carried the hermit around for about 10-15 seconds and spit it out.... I will try to catch him and return him if he doesnt stop... I really liked him..

Re: My 265 gallon in wall reef.

nice hogfish, it does look alot like my yellow wrasse, the spots are just in different places, mine's are on the dorsal fin and the wrasse is a bit skinnier, for anyone that was wondering. anyway, great beautiful reef, i hope to be there someday. Keep it up
