Harlequin Tusk good choice, bright up my tank with it's orange colour & peaceful fish. Australia type hardly have, got my from JJ katong.

how much did u pay for ur harley? I live @ Jakarta and its quite pricey here.. It would cost me around 4 blue notes SGD..

About the Blue face, is it really going to munch mushies? I had 1 Asfur and it's doing ok..

my asfur only chase purple tang sometimes, oh i got 1 french juvenile being whacked by asfur before and currently i put my french in my QT.. he grew like monster there.. 5-6 cm when 1st time i bought, and now he surely exceed 8cm (in 3 months)

im thinking to catch and put asfur in sump for few weeks.. to let my french going inside main tank..

Lineatus is such a good citizens, ignore everyone except sometimes he chased my flameback during feeding time..

Hopefully i can get a good specimen of Harlequin Tusk B)

For size, Asfur is around 5" and my french around 3.5", lineatus 4"
