Chaetoderma pencilligera -- I bought one of these about 2 months ago. Since that time, it's gone from about 3.5 cm (nose to tail) to about 9 cm, and has become quite the character!
It's in a fish-only aquarium with a heniochus butterfly fish, a harlequin tuskfish, a bird wrasse, and a clown tang. It eats whatever is offered (loves meats, but will even pick at algae sheets), and is very "food-possessive."
This fish usually minds its own business, but will not tolerate harassment from any other fish, in fact, she's probably 2nd in "rank," right under the clown tang, who is self-proclaimed ruler.
Anyone else have any observations on this fish?
Thanks!
