These guys are the best fish ever and so instead of adding their photos to my tank journal, I felt they deserved their own post!
I will try getting more photos after a good algae clean and a water change tomorrow!
I chose these three out of a tank with 40 odd at TMC, it was difficult because every time i chose one and twitched the net, the whole lot piled into the corner on top of each other.! But i did my best and seems I may have got it right! Think i got 1 male and 2 females go me because no one else could sex them for me
I had the purple barnacle shell in the tank for them for ages now and it turns out they arent even remotely interested in it they dart in and out of holes in my liverock (its really hollow sort of rock). Though they spend an awful lot of time on the sand and scurrying around.
They are *real* food monsters! One minute you cant see them and the second the turky baster with frozen food goes in the tank, they rush up and try to get the food out!
I am totally in love with these guys!!
