Some photos of the Dreamfish landing

[Cirrus]

Here are some photos of the fish taken at the landing and shortly after.

First up, the 90% GH Merlion Harmony and Merlion Royal Ultimate BBXB

Next up, a Premium Blood Red

And now a Merlion Royal Blue Base with 50% GH. This fish pretty much glows in the dark.

A couple shots of some HBRTG's in the bag

And a beautiful Merlion Harmony Ultimate (non GH). These photos are kind of unusual as they were all taken in my 300 gallon. I have had a really hard time adjusting the lighting to get the fish to show properly; you will note some photos have reflections of other objects in the room, etc. Time for me to invest in a better camera and lighting equipment I think!

what pellets is it eating???

Hikari sticks, Omega one marine pellets and now tetra bits too. I feed the other food to some my other fish in the tank and he gets the ones that are floating.
He's eating frozen krill and mysis as well. Basically eats anything I've tried to feed except for the freeze dried blackworms that I feed to the angels in the tank. He eats them and then spits them out, hasn't figured out that it's food yet.

At this size they are very easy to train. Trick is to not overfeed the pellets. Feed several times a day a few pellets at a time. This will keep them interested in the food long term. Be careful about feeding live foods now as well. If they get addicted to the taste they may stop eating the pellets altogether.

Thats good to know.
I would never feed live unless i had no other choice.
