Digiman Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 more pictures of the multibars. picture very grainy. sorry bout that. Multibar is also v difficult! I tried many times and all started breaking down in a few weeks. But yours look v healthy, hope they can do well. The vanderbilt chromis i got from CF are so sensitive, one died in hours and other two are hiding but finally saw them coming out tonight to feed. They're actually v v beautiful and is the smallest of all chromis. Keeping a big school will be even nicer. So u're ready to get back your roseafascia fairy?

CF. Wetmorella is v uncommon but not v rare nor expensive. I've seen it a few times at Ah Beng and a few different species, but each time only come one piece and for such a cute and small fish it's normally grabbed within hours.

dnsfpl Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 skimmate? if nothing toxic was added in the tank, nothing toxic should accumulate. skimmate contains organics and proteins that are skimmed out before they are broken down in the tank. so putting it back in should cause no problem and not the extreme of "killing yourself and killing your tank" people's skimmer overflow all the time and i had countless of times where skimmate flowed back into the tank. drinking 200ml of vodka a day for 10 days vs 2l of vodka 1 shot every 10 days the latter is more likely to get alcohol poisoning cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not vibrant w yellow and no blue can be seen. It's a dull greyish green with yellow linings, i cant say it's beautiful but i like it a lot becos of it's small size. I think one can easily argue tat the common green chromis is more colourful than vanderbilt. In my tank w dark settings, it looks exactly like the photo i attached below, maybe not as colourful as u imagined? Triocellatus sometimes can be seen at Ah Beng... Only 1-2 pieces.. Not very ex also.. Yes i've seen triocellatus in Ah Beng a few times also and quite cheap, slightly over one red note. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Reefer yikai Posted June 28, 2010 Author Senior Reefer Share Posted June 28, 2010 update on the multibar pair. one of them have slight ich but it's understandable since i did not want to QT them. QT them might cause more harm than good anyways... such delicate fish i don't want to stress them in a bare bottom QT. straight into a tank with plenty of liverock is the best solution one of them is feeding very very aggressively on mysis. fighting the waves from the tunze 6105 to feed on mysis even. this fella is in good shape and very alert. the other multibar is more sullen and prefers hanging underneath it's cave. it's not feeding yet and not as active compared to it's partner. i won't worry yet since i saw both of them feeding in the LFS. so i hope it's just a matter of time. taking into consideration i just introduced them yesterday also.
