FuEl Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 Thanks guys. Indeed it has not been easy. As of today the orange fish has taken on a little hue of purple. Will update another pic when it has more or less stabilised.

FuEl Posted June 29, 2008 Author Share Posted June 29, 2008 40-42 days. The orange fish has started to turn purple. Guess it might be an orchid dottyback? The other fish is still rather translucent, much bigger than the orange-purple fish. :roll: Quote Always something more important than fish. http://reefbuilders.com/2012/03/08/sps-pico-reef/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuEl Posted July 21, 2008 Author Share Posted July 21, 2008 any updates? The first settler is fully pigmented with and coming close to 2cm. The second one has a slight orange hue to it. Now focusing on second batch. Currently at 9 days, around the size of newly hatched clownfish larvae I think.
