The only time when the acan show signs of stress like that when in my tank, was when my stu**d blue tang pecked on it. But after moving it to the smaller tank, it recovered within a couple of days.

Bro FT, check whether got fish disturb or not.

The acan I believe needs more time to settle down. Kenneth has seen it today and says also need more time to let it settle. Ming, so far did not see any fish nip at it Manwhile tested water today and found tat the PH is low. Needs to buffer it up or all the corals will soon be in stress

Can anyone tell me wat fish is this ? Was told its called a "banana Fish" The colors esp the yellow strips is very radiant and shape of the fish also resembles "BANANA" too Got a few in my tank and guess wat ??? It feeds when I was feeding my fishes with brine n mysis shrimps... Swam in the open after a few hours on introduction in the tank The fish is abt3 inches long

[fishtalk1517]

found this fellow which I think color is unique

[hammy]

Ya been dosing some PH buffer to build it up. There's alot of these banana fish selling at T95. The yellow turn to like neon color under T5

[kelstorm]

the "bananafish" looked like Rainbow runners to me.

Er... bro, did a search on rainbow runner and all pics shows fisherman's fav fish tat they caught at sea.. And its all huge fish, dun wanna the 3 fellow to grow so big Are these really the babies of "Rainbow Runner" ??

[kelstorm]

i never knew they can grow to that size.. but i have seen them swimming in schools but then, they already table size liao.. hahaha.

[fishtalk1517]

Dun think its tat school of fishes tat u seen when diving la. Hardly seen it at LFS. T95 now got lotsa of it there, at least another 40 fishes there. The colors are jus neon yellow when at T5 lightings.

I goggle abt the rainbow runner and it says got blue stripes, but mine is yellow stripes lei. Jus hope they dun grow too big n too fast. If not, I'll have to turn to my fishing tackle box for the fishing tools and will invite u over for Teochew steamed fish

hv a feeling that it should be the same species.. under the same family. The shape is too similar.. but perhaps the color changes as it grows? just like from Juv to Adult Emperor Angelfish.

hahaha.. just love to make u worry.. hahaha.. u sure they wun eat ur fishes and corals? if feast on corals, u know where to put ur corals hor... hahaha

U 2 kidding me ??? Add more rocks !!! I jus removed abt 40kg of the rocks and now to add more?? I'm still thinking to get rid more rocks but tat will means to remove more fishes and some corals too. Still very packed and messy even after rescape. Think I'm no artise and creative in scaping

Something fishy here with all that gathering ... Staging a rebellion ??
