My constant Hewbie battle!

Oh Hewbie... you bit the hand that feedeth you.

Yeah, I guess you are right. Fresh water dip and a round of meds that may, or may not, have been necessary. Still hard to tell from this thread and I didn't mention getting bit. I know it may come across a bit rough around the edges but really why jump in to expert fish regardless of why they are tagged as such so soon? Besides it would have a better chance with a mature display not to mention sourcing a quality animal which means one is paying a premium.

Why rush is what I'm wondering.

Ah okay I see what youre saying! And I agree

I was more using it as an example not saying they are the same, I know NOTHING about this wrasse, Ive got my Melanarus wrasse and thats it. I was more saying that I dont think she jumps willy nilly into fish based on her posts, but I believe you that they are hard. Wrasse in general just seem hard so if you think its too hard thats okay! Was more saying that I dont see her as a bad aquarist just cause Hewbie has rub spots and stuff. Also what makes these wrasse harder than the regal and PBT by the way? Just curious and love to learn new things. Wrasse are cool but some seem super hard. Im just happy my mel is doing well since he is so pretty!

yellow tail tamarin wrasses are many levels more difficult than a regal angel or a powder blue tang. I don't think this particular aquarist has any business purchasing a yellow tail tamarin wrasse.

One thing to add. What kind spectrum of light are you running? The more blue the more reflection and glass surfing.

Full spectrum but he does glass surf no matter if the lights are on or now. I watch him on the camera.

He literally did the other day. It was my fault though lol.

Lol clowns are evil!! Mine bit the sh— out of me all the time! I bad feed my triggers and he only nipped me once. Nothing compared to the bite of a clown. Granted he was a baby niger lol. Ive ordered a pair of blue jaws so we will see if I decide to hand feed them too!

I don’t think anyone is saying she’s a bad aquarist, but she is still fairly new to the hobby. I think it’s maybe a good future goal, a few years down the road.

By the way Im so jealous of your beautiful coral nano! Been trying to do one like that. Wish I could get mine like that, Im struggling with that tank right now! But my 70 and 125 is doing amazing

Quick little update he’s doing really well! He’s glass surfing slightly less still but still being Hewbie and his marks are healing!

You should try walking him more often, my lion gets like this when I forget to walk him and feed him silver sides. He calms down after I pet him a little…

Hewbie is doing great and after some meds I believe surfing less but he still chases his reflection this is just a Hewbie thing. Either way he is 100% a good boy!
