With the Duncan heads Pistol Shrimp buried :rolleyes:

While she gets acclimated (all calm in the tank as well!), how about the also-new "Indo Dragon Soul" torch opening up :grinning-face:

Paid some bills for the LFS this week :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:
That torch is on my wishlist. SO pretty!

Big mama is out and about this morning, shy when I approach the tank but swimming and grazing. Mel seems slightly stressed with a little flashing, but no aggression in the tank otherwise. Early still, lights ramping up.

Working on some better pics with filters shortly ;) . It's bacon time now.

I believe technically (please to correct if wrong!), White Tail Bristletooth (Ctenochaetus flavicauda) vs Yellow Eye Kole (Ctenochaetus strigosus), as I've been mentioning.

"Ophelia" as the wife has named her our new White Tail Bristletooth Tang fits in perfect and is already tearing up what little algae we have, after the tank move. I make algea like a boss though, she gonna be thick.

Maybe it isn’t used to Alaskan nori ;) I’m sure it’s an acquired taste.

is someone munching on your grammas tail. I think your clowns maybe have you fooled. ;)

Interesting catch! I'll take a better look today, it might be / hoping it's the angle as she's turning in the photo...

Ruth Bader Gramma will tolerate no such thing!
