Another leopard.

Brad Syphus · Feb 2, 2011

They are doing great. Every day they stay up a bit longer. Yesterday they were up around 9 am and didn't go back in the sand until around 5 pm. I'm sure they are still adjusting to there new surroundings and new tankmates. Plus new timezone. I did pull out the camera yesterday and got a couple new pix.
But, I haven't got a wrasse count yet.:baffle:

Nice, they look like they are doing well. Glad to see that they are getting along as well.

When they go to sleep, do they just dive into the sand? haha

Have you had any aggression issues? I had a pretty large bipartus(female) and added a small black leopard(female) and the larger bipartus wouldn't leave it alone and scared it into my overflow box and I moved the smaller black to another tank. Any issues like this? What do you do to keep the aggression down?

It's a lot... I usually feed them almost everytime I go downstairs. They love the 1mm spectrum pellets and they see me and head straight for me. I see their sad hungry eyes and can't resist. LOL
Then every night I feed a mixture of three cubes frozen, plus a big chunck of pemysis, and a good portion of spirulina flakes. Mix it all up and dump it in.
It looks like a war zone for about 40 seconds and then it's all over.

I'll have to let you know when I'm feeding one night and you can watch on my live camera. LOL

My tank is starting to get like that too. I thaw my food out in a little black measuring cup, so when I dip the bottom of that in the tank, all the fish come sprinting over to that side. I love the reaction.

I could only wonder everything that has to go into that tank. Do you keep a fuge for pods and such to help out?

I was kind of worried about that when I added the new pair, especially since my potters leopard is so much larger than the new pair. But there wasn't any at all, as a matter of fact, the little one has been hanging out with the potters as you can see in one of my pictures.

I do have a live camera which is on the tank 24/7. You can view my tank by clicking on the link in my signature, but I don't have a video camera to record.
