I thought the susumi might not be big cos i see the other Liopropoma so small.. But it is quite big.. Since buy liao and so difficult to sell.. Just dump in lor...

Black clown is always my favorite clown since the start untill Midnight clown came along.. :P

These butterfly and angels if got tiny one i sure buy one if i have the money, saw a few of the heniochus at Iwarna mah..

lol...

[Terryz_]

coz ur fish too small!

True lar.. But i like small fishes...

[yikai]

True lar.. But i like small fishes...

i have less fish than you but my tank looks crowded. but still not crowded enough.

the marginalis, longnose, marjorie trio, roseafascia and the maculosus makes the tank look crowded.

[Terryz_]

Who says ateania wrasse is cryptic?!?!?

It is the first fish I saw when I reach home..

P. ataenia is one of the most cryptic of all labrids. P. ataenia is the only species in the monotypic genus Pseudocheilinops so it's impossible to compare it's behaviour with similar species.

Although i've never kept one before and never will, books and internet resources all state the crypticness of P. ataenia. Even in the wild they are very reclusive and will never be spotted unless deliberately looking for them.

But from the video of your tank, it should not have problem settling down and show itself more. The tank looks peaceful with no fast swimming over-powering, active, boisterous fishes like large angels, tangs, big wrasses etc.

So it's no surprise that the ataenia is not shy. Let's hope it stays like this even when your stock list is completed.

Really admire your stocklist, the fishes u like are so different from what majority of pple like. Very unique taste and because of that u should understand why most pple will not be able to appreciate your tank or give positive feedbacks.

Some fishes that i dun quite understand:

1. Why u keep a coral beauty? Is it a unique coloration one or it has always been one of your favourite dwarf angel?

2. There are only flasher wrasse, how come u dun like fairy wrasse like most pple do? For example common ones like flame, rhomboid, hooded all these will greatly brighten up your tank a lot more compared to the flashers u have now.

3. Isn't bartletts nicer than dispar, lori and randall? Why u dun keep bartletts instead since they're hardier and nicer. It isn't like dispar, lori or randalls are rare, they're all as common as bartletts, any special reasons u chose them or u simply like them more over bartletts?

4. Clownfish u dun like picasso? Pearl-eye clarki is nice, but black clown is errgh.... Not say not nice but a bit boring isn't it now w domino and midnight or even misbar black clown coming out. Even misbar latz are more interesting than black clown dun u agree?

Haha not to challenge your choice of fishes but jux curious to know why u get all these fishes because u're in this hobby for so many years, probably longer than me, so thought your choice of fishes will be geared towards something more special or rare or at least something that most pple agree to be nice.

i like the two coradion in his video. they look very healthy.

but the coral beauty and anthias i don't like. but randall is ok lah. not very common and yet beautiful. if he manages to get one into an alpha male like those in the wild, then OMG. gorgeous.

It is so cute with its big eye looking around.. LOL... Maybe can buy a possum also...

[Terryz_]

Hehe, knew this would come.. LOL..

Yup, I know... Just posting to keep track..

Some fishes that i dun quite understand:

1. Why u keep a coral beauty? Is it a unique coloration one or it has always been one of your favourite dwarf angel?

Oh, this coral beauty is from Henry, the more purple ones and it is only 1 inch big... I always wanted the tiger coral beauty from Mauritius but it seems too far fetch to get..

2. There are only flasher wrasse, how come u dun like fairy wrasse like most pple do? For example common ones like flame, rhomboid, hooded all these will greatly brighten up your tank a lot more compared to the flashers u have now.

I do, But I just dun like keeping fairy as a solo male or female and my selection of Fairy is also quite unique... I prefer a pair if not I would have gotten the Hooded..

3. Isn't bartletts nicer than dispar, lori and randall? Why u dun keep bartletts instead since they're hardier and nicer. It isn't like dispar, lori or randalls are rare, they're all as common as bartletts, any special reasons u chose them or u simply like them more over bartletts?

I am not saying barletts are not nice but even after seeing so many healthy and beautiful barletts it just does not appeal to me... Maybe I prefer more pink anthias?? I never liked purple queen, evansi and blue eye but I like resplendent, randell, flavicauda and carlson...

4. Clownfish u dun like picasso? Pearl-eye clarki is nice, but black clown is errgh.... Not say not nice but a bit boring isn't it now w domino and midnight or even misbar black clown coming out. Even misbar latz are more interesting than black clown dun u agree?

Because I am a bit OCD, I dun like Misbar, Picasso... The same reason why I like blueline angels but never buy becos the lines are not identical on both sides and the lines are not complete.. I know they are not factory made product but I just have this problem of getting over it..

I might try Midnight pair if i gather enough interest and courage to spend $320 on two clownfish...

I know but sometimes it is difficult to change the likes and dislikes of a person... Haha... And it is not that I dun like rare fishes, but sometimes it just boil down to whether i can find the right size and condition and normally these rare fishes, you cant expect to see the LFS bring in a few to chose from and that is why...

I just hope they stay healthy, chances from RC and Tanaka is that they wun last long... The dispar is actually a trial... Anyway will only be focusing on getting a randell group... The male will take a very long time and it will get very big before it can be that coloration.. Even those that Iwarna came in are just submale with all the red dorsal, pelvic and ###### fins...
