I agree, nice setup. I really like that its not under the stand, seems like it'd make everything a lot easier.

Ohh that's one point I missed, thought I covered them all. You have to use a hard container to move him. His spines will get stuck in the bag and/or break off fins. Im sure you're familiar with he acrylic boxes the lfs uses when buying a fish? Those are best...or tupperware

Poor guy! So little water  . I make my LFS give me extra water from the tank so they don't get stressed when acclimating even more so because the bucket is on the side.

Looking good. Did you get anything to feed him yet? Live feeder shrimp usually work if he won't eat.
