Final and most recent piece in my collection. This was a 'rescue' piece that I'm very happy with. It had been at the lfs for what seemed like several months slowly deteriorating. It wouldn't sell because it was in rough shape (skeleton protruding and flesh receding) and the listed price was high. I struck a deal with the lfs and it has since bounced back.

How long should it take for these guys to become adjusted to there new tank and start to swell?
Water Parameters
Amm:0ppm
Nitrite:0ppm
Nitrate:0-5ppm

In theory...they can start to swell when they are hungry and have adjusted to your lighting in particular. Observe them at night - you should see them extend tentacles shortly the lights go out or the moon lights come on.
If you don't have any aggressive fish or shrimp....try putting a morsel of food (thawed or even pellets) in the center and watch the food stimulate them (especially at night). Shrimp and overly aggressive fish will pick at the food before the Scoly can consume it.

There is so much awesomeness in this picture...Starting with that Tang! Then you move on to the half dozen A grade Scolies, add a few nice little acans to round out the picture and then a harlequin shrimp hiding in the back as a little easter egg...I hate you.
