    Thanks Best Fish!- OUr favorite LFS

    Drip acclimated; put him in the net; then on into the tank.
    I didn't QT this time- bit the bullet.
    I think she'll be fine- settling in well, enjoying all the tunnels, corals and rocks.

    She's a beauty. I have a male, they're great fish. Very active and fun to watch.

    Based on the colors, this one is definitely a female.
    Doing well the first few hours.

    It's funny how my DT fish react.

    Only the Strawberry Basslet, and my Coral Beauty actually chase it a small bit though. It's hanging out a bunch in my pretty large Devils Hand Softy atm.

    Well, I was gone working all day yesterday, and only home a short time during light cycle in the morning the rest of the week.

    I hope she's burrowed somwhere in my finely CC shallow bed,

    'cause today she's MIA. I checked the floor, etc.
