    Thank you much Guy, the tank he's in was supposed to be my frag tank but that's slowly becoming a new mixed reef. This is not his permanent home though. My next build is gonna be a 350g mixed reef when I decide to move.

    Thanks, All other tanks doing great.
    Though, my cleaner wrasse and bannerfish died due to being harassed by a blue damsel who coincidentally jumped out of the tank.

    Nice PBT I want one of those when I get my 90 up and running or an achilles that will be a tough decision.

    Very hard decision indeed. I only got the PBT because I've never see the Achilles tang available in Trinidad. I'm hoping to be able to keep the Achilles, PBT and a Naso all in my 350gal in the next couple of months.

    Great looking PB!!!.. Good luck with the Achilles.. It was my favorite fish... They do catch ich VERY easily though.. I don't know if you QT them but I think if I get another one I'm going to do that just to make sure there is nothing "ichy" going on. You say your yellow tang give your PB a little trouble, how long have you had the yellow tang in that aquarium?

    Haha :) You will love an achilles, Mine is my favorite fish, Very touchy! Ive been battling an eye infection with him for a month, the fish is blind as a bat :(. But still keeping him going... Thankfully.

    As for the PBT! Awesome fish you will enjoy it alot! Congrats!

    Well, the yellow gave him so much beans that my PB got Ich and died this past weekend. I now officially hate that yellow tang:angry:. I got them separated when I noticed that the PB had stopped eating but it was too late. I tried to treat him with 1.25%copper and 17%formaldahyde. But that still didn't work in time. Lately, I've been flushing some really expensive fish. Clown Tang, PB Tang, Hippo Tang. Time to assess my future in fish. i.e. More Coral;)
