Vinc's 2ft Cube Tank

Hi Bro,

Any update on the copper-banded butterfly?

Is it feeding?

[vt_snowman87]

excellent! keep the flashing up, their colours will retain very well. a mirror might increase the flashing if they decide to stop for whatever reason, and other dither wrasses will increase flaring and flashing behaviours. if they stop for good, colours may fade. not sure for mccosker, but this is wat i observe for P. lineopunctatus. yours looks big. a nice terminal male size!

good idea on the mirror.. i was thinking of getting another flasher wrasse to increase their flaring.. but dunno what else is nice and affordable, gotta go shopping real soon haha.. my previous yellow-fin stopped flaring, and the colour really faded away.. i must keep this mccosker's colours!

the copper-band has cleared my dad's tank of aipstasia, and is seen to be eating frozen mysis at the back of the tank, but is usually too shy to come out to the front during feeding.. need to train up its bravery some more..

get some fairys. there's no other flasher wrasse that compare to the beauty of mccosker. anyway, all flashers look more or less the same, so attention will be focuses away from ur mccosker. FAIRYS!!!

hehe ya.. the RBTA spawned, but its inside my frag tank, so its still 'safe'.. this is the first nem to enter my display tank.. i'm scared abt it eating my fishes!

yupps it anchors very well, and that is the characteristic of the S. Haddoni, thats why i chose this nem for my display tank.. wouldn't want it to roam around stinging my sps-es..
