That may be... if the bottom skeleton looks like it it was cut with a saw, then it's a geoffroy. Radiata detach themselves when mature and naturally sit in the sand, or get blown away in the current. The bottom is concave, like a bowl, and the tissue wraps all the was around the sides to just under the bottom. The skeleton on radiata are also round, where geoffroy tend to be oval.

You'll have a 40b anyhow in 2 years.

40b is about the perfect budget tank... pick them up on the $/g sale, drill overflow, or HOB or canister... but the size is amazing. Opens up a ton of medium sized fish and the dimensions are perfect for scaping.

Finally came out from behind the trachys...

Shrimp spam! He is almost 3 years old(in my care) and has faught several power heads, a snowflake moray(lost claws on the power head and snowflake but they grow back), a golden dwarf moray and many fish. Royal pain in the wrasse, but he absolutely destroys aiptasia.

I'm glad you mentioned the skeleton. I'll have a positive ID soon enough. Lol

It ships tomorrow. Anyone placing bets on how long it will last?

It'll be just fine, you have a healthy tank. Trachys are tough corals.

Whoop-whoop! It’s the tang police here

but seriously. I want a tang !!

I guess I'll be looking for a defect tang. I'm sure Andrew will fall in love with a deeply scarred one that needs a forever home.

There’s a Powder Blue tang being given away right now

Powder blue up if anyone is feeling generous.

I see a lot of these "rescue" videos, and hate to admit that I need a rescuer to take my PBT. I am happy to hand him over to capable hands, but he comes with a lot of baggage. The history: Came in looking great, got ich, black ich, then got over that pretty fast - like a couple of weeks...

This seems like an Agent Zero...a real Typhoid Mary if you will.

edit: @living_tribunal I’m convinced. I’m wrong about quarantining. if you put this in your qt tank, your qt tank would need its own qt tank.
