If I am ever near you I am coming to sit on your couch in front of that tank. Those fish are GORGEOUS! Achilles, Powder Blue, Magnificent Foxface, Angel OH MY!!

I love the fact you're feeding them out of your hand. ugh I wish I had a big tank :(

Beautiful Sunny!! Did you get another Fowleri? There's another one that I don't remember and it looks a lot like him. The Mustard is looking even better too. Great job!

Oh, and those Anthias are amazing looking too!

Thanks Everyone. Yes the fish are doing well.

The Anthias are Bimaculatus pair.

The other fish that looks like a Fowleri is actually the Acanthurus dussumieri.

Love it! Tnx for posting. The Achilles Tang looks so happy and healthy, such a good eater! :)

Achilles was the reason I started this regime. All tangs would eat so well and he would not get a chance to eat. So I decided to feed everyone first by tying the stuff to a rock/pvc. Then when they were done, I started feeding Achilles by hand. In 2 days, everyone lined up for it :D.

My wife does not notice much about my tanks and fish ;). She saw me feeding this way and was speechless for a few minutes.

It was so satisfying - if you know what I mean - LOL LOL

I did not use D90 for this. I think it is too bulky for videos. I am trying out a small videocamera that I purchased about 30 minutes before I took this video.

Thanks Rayn. The two fish that you mentioned will go in last, specially the Powder Blue since she is one aggressive fish.
I will start doing weekly water changes from my DT into the QT in about 2 weeks or so. I will do this for 4 weeks without any medication.
Then they will start going in if all is well. The wrasses first and then the tangs ;)
