Im using a Canon 5d mark ii with an 85mm F1.2

yeah i am aware that he'll get big, but was told that would be in 3 years or so.

ill probably sell him or give him away at that time. i just really like it right now.

what do you mean he'll eat things i wont like?

 

[mr_X]

shrimp, small fish...whatever he wants...lol.

but it says he's a peaceful fish.... i know he'll eat shrimp. but why other fish?

 

[mr_X]

he will peacefully eat small fish. i'm talking damsel sized fish. i don't know why, but i've seen them consume fish.

Oh well. I'll probably find home a new home at 10-12 inches

 

[Hinds04]

10-12 inches will be to late for his friends in the tank

 

[mr_X]

maybe, maybe not. just like i've seen tangs that love to eat 300 dollar chalices, i have seen these eat fish. it doesn't mean it will happen.

yeah i dunno, he's gonna be in a tank with larger fish so it should be ok... i hope.

smallest fish will probably be the clowns when they're fully grown

so far loves to eat frozen brine shrimp, NLS cichlid pellets and formula 2 pellets

Just keep an eye on him, he might never eat anyone....or he might eat everyone!!
