though now that i have been watching it for a while it swims almost flat to all flat...and i noticed a small pair of fins infront of the anal fin...from reading the id thread i think scombs aren't like that...i geuss i am lost in its id...the tail has a dark color but it is kinda see through...i paid $39 for it...
 
i thought they were suposed to be really rare? this is the first one i have ever seen availible around me and they are never on any lists so i got it...
 
Most deffanatly a raph. They are fairly hard fish to find most of the time. but its baby raph season right now. I just got 3 a few weeks ago.

180gal, 300gal, 600gal?


300 should do it. But bigger can't hurt.

I beleive they do well in groups as well.
