My daughter came 'round just before lock down over here, she looked at the tank and asked what was wrong with the fox face because he was so timid, he was always front and centre?! ;)

I have a disgruntled cave goby, the conch is asleep on the sand by his front door and he can't move it because it is too big! ;)
I love watching the tank wake up, still one pair of T5s to come on. :)

Poor little engineer goby. Bullied.

My cave goby argues with it, when the engineer is spitting sand somewhere he'll sit with his tail to the engineer and as the engineer spits the cave goby does his little shimmy and fires sand back into the engineer's face, I chuckle every time I see it! ;)

CBB is my favorite fish!!! So beautiful.
He’s gonna look awesome in your tank. And hopefully have a good appetite!

2 hours later, ... "It could have gone better!"
Long nose hawk (I know right guess the reason?), a hole.
Yellow scopas (this was always a concern!), a hole.
Scopas (this surprised me!), a hole.
Flame angel (this also surprises me!), a hole.

Fed, cool for 5 minutes.
I put the net in place to try and catch the scopas or flame in the cube, ongoing.
... 16-09 hrs flame isolated.
... 16-19 hrs trap in, open to the display.
To calm the scopas tangs down I put a net in and blocked their cave, this sort of calmed them both a bit.
The cbb went to the front left of the desk view when I stood up, that is where the side door of the scopas cave is, it kept getting spooked, I blocked the door!
I haven't seen the scopas since I blocked the door.
... 16-33 hrs I removed that rock in case I had trapped the scopas in the scape!
5 fish got the evil eye and all 5 are still under it, the ln hawk has calmed down.
I just blocked the semi side door, the Y scopas is calming down.
Still no scopas sighting.
Just after in.

You have a soap opera going on in there right now. Everybody is just jealous of the CBB beauty;)

My heart was pumping following the chronology of the days events with the cbb intro... all i needed was some top gun music in the back ground..


So, the cbb has taken to the front right corner, it is grazing. :)

Right in the middle there is a shelf, the scopas' cave is under there, well was their cave, it now has the rock with the colt coral shoved in it!
This has the yellow scopas very distracted, no sign of the scopas!
... I unblocked one door, we have both.
They have both been and had a look and just displayed at the cbb.
I am cold shouldering them and the know it and are very subdued!
The flame is getting another 24 hrs time out in the cube, hopefully the cbb will settle more in that time.
This is from the desk end so the fish is about three feet away, the yellow cast is light spill from the cube. ;)
