    So, now that the tank has settled from moving houses its time to get another inhabitant. Welcome Gabby :D

    She (he?) is a 1" blue tang. She came in to the LFS and I brought her home. After mandatory QT she's swimmin happy! She eats really well and her tank mates didn't bother her a bit :D

    Sorry for the pic quality and the yellow....... it's a Blackberry.

    Most definitely. Healthy one too. Knock on wood, no signs of ich and the like. She was eating right away when she came home too.

    Congrats on the new addition. I can't wait until I am able to upgrade to a large enough tank to house tangs.

    Thanks so much!!! She IS tiny! I wanted to take a pic with her next to a quarter....just about the same size as you can tell by her being next to the koralia coupling (red)

    She is really taking to the tank. Still hiding a lot and sleeping a lot but she's a baby so it's normal. She will be AMAZING to watch grow! I'll take lots of pics :D
