Thanks guys, 4" TL

Looks good rob and I will go with mike on the substrate. Even just a slight amount of substrate and a good hiding spot will greatly reduce stress on the little guy but the last thing I'm trying to do is derail your thread. looks great though. Your doing the right thing with him. ghost shrimp will be the best food to bulk him up quick.

Thanks!

I'd like to note that this is not a discussion thread. If you own one of these, fresh or salt water, feel free to post up a pic then state your opinion. If you have no experience with this fish, your statements are irrelevant.
My pH is high at 7.4-7.6.

can you just designate a thread as nondiscussion?

Thanks Mike, just posted a WTB add on aquaria central, hopefully they can help me find some in bulk.

Seeing how it is MY thread, yes.

Thanks! I'll add a cave tonight.

This is the PHOTO LOUNGE, not general aquaria discussion! Post a pic of your fish, then state your opinion. I posted so the many wonderful members of this site can see my fish, and make comments on it. However, those comments are limited. Telling me how to keep a fish, or what it deserves is derailment. Small tips, suggestions, what has worked in the past, sure, I'm learning every day and love getting those type of responses! Stop by, test my water, look at my fish, then tell me it isn't happy.

Thanks Mike! I have crushed coral in the filters, and in a bag inside the tank. I'll take the bag out and spread out the coral, hopefully he'll like it.
You can stop by anytime. PM me if you'll ever be in the area.

I'll take you up on that offer.....I'm in on the mini MFK meet at fishguy7's house.
I'll bring some water test kits.

Thanks Hao!
Changed his setup tonight, as promised.
The tank is a divided 55g growout, a FRT is on the other side. Filtration is an eheim 2260 and eheim 2213 with UV in line. I had to put a glass panel in front of the 2260 output, the current was too strong.
