thanks, the lunula is now about 5 inches...has lost his baby stripe and now has the black spot on his belly...

RouDaiLLe · 05/01/2012, 01:27 PM

Wow is that the Xanthichtys hybrid from DD during january?
Fantastic mate, you owe us a general pix of your tanks

humaguy · 05/01/2012, 03:07 PM

thanks, but no, that is not the dd hybrid...that is my female that is beginning to go male, I think, lol...

RouDaiLLe · 05/01/2012, 03:24 PM

haha

Sounds less sexy ;p

brookers · 05/01/2012, 03:45 PM

hey humaguy great pics, impressive collection you have.

can you answer a Q for me, do you think a rectangulus will be ok to keep in the same tank (180) as a regular picasso without any aggro long term ?

really depends on the two fish and their personalities...(I would get them as small as possible- better chance to get "sane" larger trigs later) ime lagoon trigs have been very mellow, but I know of some who have had crazy humas, bursa, rectangulus etc...I have kept a few rhinecantus together, found def. the bigger the tank the better, also keep them very well fed, and put lots of hermits and crabs in the tank to keep them preoccupied and busy, any time they are not focused on each other is good....ps...my baby rectangulus is in qt and will go into big tank soon, and my 4 in huma (who is now 4 yrs old, such a slow grower) in my 250 will eventually go into the qt and then big tank...when those 2 are in the big tank I will one of every lagoon, rhinecanthus, trig I know of...(no abysus, though with the Narcosis that Rufus just got, I imagine we will see one soon) will let you know what happens, lol...though my hope is that the sheer size of the Cinereus is so intimidating that the others will continue to be mellow, the Sohal is still being nice, well shall see...

true, but I was rather skeptical about that hybrid..also felt that was a female transitioning to a male...and was not worth the price...

humaguy · 05/02/2012, 05:33 AM

almost a full tank shot...

Kahuna Tuna · 05/05/2012, 05:52 PM

That Assassi is amazing, just might be my fave, very nice pics.

Wistler · 05/06/2012, 09:13 AM

You have a beautiful collection of fish!

It's nice to see them doing well in a FO tank with no substrate or LR.

I'm not trying to hi jack your thread, but I have a question and there seem to be a lot of Trigger experts here.

I was visiting LA in February and saw this trigger in a local fish store. Does anyone know what it is? It was marked "Picasso" trigger but it looks nothing like my HUMU Trigger or any others I have seen on google images.

Thanks.

Humaguy, how does the garabaldi get along with everyone? Also, do you keep your temps any lower for him?

humaguy · 05/06/2012, 02:04 PM

yes, that is a bursa trig...I have a 1.25 incher in the big tank..
the garibaldi was kept in a smaller tank without heaters for the first 6-8 months i had him...the temp is the bigger tank is at 74 and she is fine...but getting very large...tough fish...

humaguy · 05/06/2012, 02:07 PM

bursa trigs are lagoon trigs and are often marked as humas, which bothers me....but only rhinecanthus aculeatus and rhinecanthus rectangulus are true humas...

Amazing collection of fish, you have all of my top favorite fish in there!
