Tang suggestions?

[MikeyTN]

I never had an issue with adding new ones with my Naso. The one I had before and now. They’re rather shy to begin with so I would add them first.

 

[southerntnreefer]

maybe naso and hippo together then? then add the atlantic blue and sailfin?

 

[MikeyTN]

Yes that would be the route I would go with cause sailfin can be pretty aggressive.

 

[southerntnreefer]

I'm not tied to a sailfin. But I know my wife wants to try another Atlantic. It's not something you see often local so I'll have to order.

 

[MikeyTN]

Critters gets the Atlantic often.

 

[southerntnreefer]

Really? U sure you don't work for them hahaha! She was gutted we lost the one we got last weekend. I haven't been in there since I got my Niger a few months back. Maybe I'll take a trip up. They are closest to me technically. Wife wants a couple new fish for her cube, so maybe a window shopping day is in order. Any hippo last time you were there?

 

[MikeyTN]

I go there on a weekly basis to get supply so I see what they have every week. They have hippos often. Pick the healthiest one and have them hold it for ya. Do not put their water in your tank as majority are copper treated tanks.

 

[southerntnreefer]

My Niger came from copper. I just acclimated in the bag and then put him in without letting my net touch my water. I always wondered that do they hold? Like if i go tomorrow and find one, have them hold till the following week? my normal place does that, but i havent bought fish regularly at critter since i got my blood parrots in my fresh tank. Id likely put them in my QT tank anyways, so not as big of deal.

 

[MikeyTN]

Yes they'll hold it for you a week no issue. Which other place let you hold?

 

[southerntnreefer]

Emerald has in the past as long as its not too long. when i got my yellow it came in and they held it to the end of the week. With Critter do you have to pre pay?

 

[MikeyTN]

You don't have to prepay no but it's better if you do as they're more willing to hold.

 

[southerntnreefer]

I don't mind, that way i know it's been in the tanks for a week, eating, and likely in a bit of copper.

 

[MikeyTN]

Just so that you know they generally gets new stock in on Thursday so Thursday afternoon or evening is the best time to view the new fishies before they get picked out cause the pretty ones goes fast.

 

[southerntnreefer]

We work to 5 in Franklin. Wife and I work for same company. So we can go home that way. That's what we did when we got our trigger. Do they order for you by any chance? Like have them order me a atlanAtl blue, and then hold it a.weekvto make sure it's eating? May go today to window shop as.my wife needs acouple nano fish for her tank

 

[MikeyTN]

I see that fish there often so I don't think that would be a problem.

 

[southerntnreefer]

I had never seen it anywhere else, and my wife loves loves loves them, and wants another.

 

[MikeyTN]

They really do stock that fish there often. I see it all the time.

 

[southerntnreefer]

Ok. I guess I never noticed it, also I admit I haven't been there in months

 

[MikeyTN]

Next time I see it there I'll message you.
