To learn more from experienced fellow marine tank and fishie masak-ers, I had been haunting the sgreefclub forum for the past few weeks. ( naturally most of these guys are hard core marine aquarium enthusiasts, with plenty of experience and advice to share)
One forumer WilsontanTW was generous enough to give me his hogfish! woohoo! so , off this greedy lil guppy went to collect her new friend!
My Improvised fish carrier - my old stainless steel tiffin tin with a little lid
This is the cute hogfish from WilsontanTW its actualy smaller than I thought! but sooo adorable! I've named him Wilson *hee hee*
When i got home i wasted no time in introducing Wilson to the rest of the gang! He proved to be highly popular, didnt display any agresive behaviour, infact he got along so well with everybody..maybe coz everybody is BIGGER than Wilson , at least twice his size!
Which actually worries me...Wilson is the same size as dottyback ( my poor dottyback that got eaten by the lion) Lionfish stares at Wilson fish from a corner under the coral...*fingers crossed* hopefully lionfish has no interest in eating hogfishes...only dottybacks *gulp*
stay tuned true believers!
Thank you WilsontanTW!
Footnote :Had help from a friend to remove down flow pipe in filterbox ( which the tankmaker had installed - i still dont understand why he did it) anyway, friend removed the pipe so the bioballs in filter box could "fall into place" and properly aerate the water that was following down into the sump tank
Set up the lights ( 2nd hand from pervious tank owner) above the tank it was nice but the WRONG SIZE? wat the hell?
need to go shopping for - more bioballs, proper 4 feet lights , more filter wool...
