I think that aquascape is 100% amazing by the way. How'd you build it like that? Or is that one big piece of rock on top?

Either way those fish are very cool. I want one, but people say they are poor shippers.

Nice! I have a Potters, Divided, and a male and female black spotted(meleagris) in my tank so far....just waiting for a Choati now! =) they are by far my favorite fish! Ive had 2 radiant wrasses and both died the same way after about a year and a half. They both got a sore on their side and died within a day. It was really strange that both got the same thing after having them for over a year each. Here is a bad picture of the 3 females together. The male hasnt adjusted to our time fully yet and goes to sleep around 4pm. I used to have a Ornate which I loved but sadly he jumped out, so becareful with the open tank!

how long have you had them? I would think it would hard for them to survive in a tank that size competing with each other for food.

[megaspoot]

Do you have a canopy? I'd be worried about them jumping.

Awesome! As far as cover concerns I have seen plastic screening on here that looks great and doesn't block any light

[Woodward6288]

your tank is magnificent...

[Gregsgsr]

Prodman. I have had the blue star for a year and the ornate for a couple months. They really dont compete for food. As soon as i walk over to the tank they come right up and look at me like you better feed me!!! They eat pellet, flake, mysis pretty much anything i put in the tank. With leopards they need to eat at least 2 times a day. Copepods are a source of leopards diet, but eventually they well come around and eat anything. They stay fat and happy!!! My blue star is incredibly thick.


Bret61081 Where did you get that potters. I just lover potters leopards, but they are hard to find. I have always wanted a choati, but pricey and survival rate is incredibly low.


About a cover, I have had extremely good luck with leopards and other wrasse about jumping . I learned one lesson never get a fairy wrasse in open top for they tend to jump and be quite boisterous, the only wrasse that i was glad to get rid of kind of mean a territorial (i took him back to store). I would also recommend that if you are adding a new fish it might startle the other inhabitants so putting a top on would not be such a bad idea for a couple days.
