I have lots of macros but did not have that one.

The fish are in QT now and will be for at least a week. I will take pics when they relax a bit.
The fish seemed really stressed in the QT. I decided against my better judgement to add them to the establish seahorse display. All 4 immediately relaxed. The mandys are inseparable and hunting together. The yellow watchman is eating frozen mysis well and I have not seen the pajama cardinal eat yet but it looks really healthy. I am going to do extra WCs to offset not QT the new fish.
