Great looking fish I don't think I'd live to see another day if my fiancé knew I spend 1.5-2k on a fish

ps. that is not my individual in the pic, but I took it from the article on RB about Goldenbacks from yesterday?
Great pic...the pictured is an amazingly small 8-9 inches...mine is the more standard 11 inch beast model... how did yours acclimate? |

btw...my Cinereus has really settled down...he swims all over and is very comfortable around me...he has a huge appetite and loves anything, esp fresh clams/shrimp...a very mellow fish, esp considering his size, but not shy and will toss his weight around if need be...

Thanks bud...just got some silversides for the Cinereus- does yours eat them too? most of my trigs seem to avoid them...I have not fed them to the Cinereus yet...glad about the temperment too...
No problems acclimating him? thinking I am going to do it in the box he comes in and not a 5 gallon bucket- he is too big for the bucket... |

i acclimated in a bucket about 60 minutes with a drip line and he didn't like being netted once in the tank he was fine .setteled in almost instantly same as my Cinereus.I had a cleaner wrasse to add witrh both the Cinereus and goldenback and that seemed to help a lot by occupying the other fish. good luck with yours cant wait to see some pics of it once in your tank
