Senior Reefer yikai Posted September 17, 2009 Senior Reefer Share Posted September 17, 2009 Hey, after days of trying to catch the fella out, finally managed to get this fish out. S > my dottyback as its getting too aggressive and its preventing me from adding new fishes.. i dunno the name of it and thus label it as "uncommon". it looks like a splendid dottyback but its not. i believe someone here ever ID for me before but i forgot it. anyway, you don't see this species often so it is quite uncommon. the fish has grown since and the colour has improved. size is about 2 inches, and eats everything even nori.. leave a comment if u are interested. pilots and lurkers please steer clear. prefer to sell it to people who can care for it. starting bid $2. minimum increament of $1. bid ends 18th september at 6PM. i will not entertain PMs as its an open bidding and not private. Happy bidding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member LaW Posted September 17, 2009 SRC Member Share Posted September 17, 2009 $5 Quote If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless. Genesis 1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. || Tank: 78" x 30" x 30" || Sump: 48" x 22" x 20" || Lights: PowerModule 10 X 80W|| Returns: 2 x HF32 || || Skimmer: BubbleKing Supermarin 300 || Wavemaker: 3 x 6100 & 1 x 6200, 2 x Wavebox 6212, WavySea || || FR: 2 x FR150 || NR: Sulphur Denitrator || CR: RM Custom Made 8" || KR: Deltec KM500 || TopUp: Tunze Osmolator 3155 || || UV: Coralife 12X 36W || Ozonizer: Sanders C200|| Controller: GHL Profilux Plus II Ex || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Reefer yikai Posted September 17, 2009 Author Senior Reefer Share Posted September 17, 2009 just a quick note.. this picture was taken months ago. currently it is bigger and looks more handsome. with better colouration too.. because it has grown bigger. and probably all the chasing of other fish have made it bold and coloured up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
