I Did IT!!!!

ello everyone,

I went to the LFS today to look at the Potters Angel again and since the tank was not super clouded like it was the previous times I went there (from trying to dig and catch corris wrasses by the LFS employees) I actually got to see him eat. He (or she) voraciously ate mysis shrimp and was a bit picky towards seaweed delight...but i was comfortable with how well he ate.

The fish is currently floating in my tank and I will drip acclimate him soon. Is it okay to drip acclimate him in a bucket? It is a leftover salt bucket I have been using to store RO water. Also, is it okay to introduce him to the tank without quarantine? I have never quarantined fish and have not had an outbreak of ick in about 6 months...knock on wood.

I do have a 40 B that is going to be used as my sump sitting in my garage, but I only have 2 402 powerheads, a left over heater and no filtration for that tank. Should I still quarantine? I also have no stand for the tank. What would you suggest?

Here is a blurry pic of the Potters in the bag for the moment until I hear more from my trusted reef central advisors! Thanks in advance,

Robert

Since you already have the fish and dont have a QT set up already I really dont see that you have much of a choice. The bucket is fine if the bag has enough water in it to do so. A QT is a really good idea for the future. The potters Angel is supposed to be a pretty tough fish to keep so good luck. Please send more pics when hes not in the bag.
