Hi all,

[hammy]

Anyone from punggol/sengkang going for the walt smith shipment ? thought of cabbing in .

[kueytoc]

And you are low profile right?

Dun show up.

Sure Tycoonaut TEO, I'm always 'low-profile' but 'high-profit' !

[Lionfish25]

Two different timing of shipment, what time to go down the best???? Who going????

[Bio528]

Heard from Pacific Marine (desmond) Red Sea shipment this week... expect the usual redsea fishes. esp the baeutiful sohal tang Tempted to get one but cant take the risk of losing my PBT, currently fat fat n healthy...

bro dont think sohal will hurt ur PBT de, unless u already have a sohal in ur tank den u add PBT sure kana whack loh, but now ur case opposite, so shld not be a prob. sohal my fav haha

hmm correct me if im wrong thx

[chercm]

any sand dollar around ?

[chaniz]

There is no right or wrong answer.

All fishes react differently.

For my case, yes, Sohal did attack my PBT for the first few days.

Now, less offen, but occasionally still chase the PBT.

If you want, get a Sohal that is smaller size than your PBT.

[Bio528]

ya get a smaller one safer, but i myself find that sohal at the size of 4" and above den nice

[kokhui]

Sorry off topic but I am also keen on getting a sohal. However, now I already have 1 purple tang, 1 yellow tang, 1 sailfin, 1 blue tang, 1 blue ring angel, 1 flame angel, 1 majestic angel, 1 yellow eye kole tang and 1 clown fish in my 4 footer. If I were to introduce a sohal now, do you think I will face problems? Thanks.

tink its best to look for a 2 inch to intro into ur tank .. coz they grow fast and also attack fast .. check out pacific marine as they ocasionally bring in tiny ones ...

[Bio528]

yea got for 2 to 3" i guess

as for sohal really agressive fish indeed, my YT, PT and Sailfin has terror the whole tank, and sohal was the last tang i added, so cfm chase by my 3 terror but sohal dont even give a damn at them, now another way round my sohal chasing them. think sohal quite hardy fish so not to worry

[alex826768]

jus to add .. sohal's favourite move : biting off tankmates' tails .. so BEWARE

Ya bro, i had same experiences previously. My sohal was added the last but it became the king n terrorises my 2 BT, 1 YT and PBT(previous king) always fight with each other. My PBT subsequently got ich never recover n die frm it. But size really made a differences. My previous sohal was same size or slightly smaller than PBT.

After the PBT died, it bacame even more of a terror till my tangs kept hiding n only came out occassionally to nip on seaweed. Eventually got to sold it away cos no pt having some many fish but can only see 1 swimming most of the time.

I must say its really bold n hardy. When i first added it in, it can fend off attacks from YT n PBT easily.

[SGTang]

Having said that, im not discouraging anyone from buying it. Agree with Bio528 cos its really a beautiful fish which is very active n always swimming around, really a joy to watch it swim. Till now im still thinking of keeping one...

BTW if im not wrong, Pac Marine latest shipment did not came in sohal. Hope next week can see them.

[shiok]

any sand dollar or sand shifting starfish?

4 YT, 2 PT, 2 Brown T, 1 Blue T, 1 Sailfin, 2 Naso, 1 PBT in my 3 ft tank also no problem. But Sohal must be the last to introduce. My Sohal is the biggest of all - 6".

wah so many tangs....think ur skimmer must be very exhausted haha tangs do poop alots...

[piero]

Never see any sohal at pasir ris when I was there...

Went to Clementi to get powder black instead. A bit pissed cos it was labelled as $25 in the end was told price revision so now $28....GST???

[Nitro]

haha GST increased, now all shops also take the opportunity to chop us, the consumers, like carrots

Think shd complain to CASE. Cuz it's a 2% increased from the govt side for the GST but all these stalls and shops start to raised more than 2%... if you do your maths, some are even more than 10% increased!

Kokhui, No problem lah. All this take some luck. As long as you have hiding place for your fishes, it should not be any problem.

Nice FOWLR you have.
