Warning... this might be a stupid question. :doh: Are the Green Mandarin Goby's the wild ones or the ORA spotted ones?

 

[barrierreefcf]

These are wild greens. Not spotted

 

[barrierreefcf]

Where's the coral list? What...you're not busy are ya Brie:badgrin:

 

[eww]

Do you have any ORA spotted or anything other than the wild mandarin's in stock? Looking for something that is eating frozen foods.

 

[bodycology21]

Are the powder brown tangs all gone? How much are they? Thanks

Sorry, just the wild ones in stock at this time...

Nope all 4 are still here. They're in great shape, gorgeous fish. $39.99ea

 

[bodycology21]

Thanks picked on up and he is doing great

If these are the same wild spotted mandarins they had about a month ago they ARE eating frozen. Atleast mine is. She is a pig when it comes to frozen food. Mysis and brine are her favorite.

 

[C-KID]

do you guys know when you will get some Yellow Multibanded Pipefish in and how much are they?

 

[barrierreefcf]

They haven't been around much lately. I really couldn't say. Whenever they are available I will order. They sell for 39.99 each.

I'm looking for a Klein's butterfly for aiptasia control. You guys have any in stock? I'm having a hard time fighting these. My red coris wrasse eats peppermint shrimp and berghia, so those two solutions are a no go for me. I like the wrasse too much to get rid of him. I tried a longnose butterfly, but he's not eating aiptasia. I'd like to avoid Copperbands as they're just too fragile. I tried a raccoon in the past and it mowed down the aiptasia and majano, but then started eating coral and never ate anything I gave him. I've heard the Klein's are more likely to eat food I give them and less likely to eat coral, though still risky.

Sorry we do not have any in right now. We can get them most of the time but my order for this week is already on its way. Our experience with Kleins Bflys was that they ate some pests but also nipped a variety of corals. I'll bring one or two in on our next order so you can try one. Maybe you'll have a better experience

 

[TWallace]

Cool thanks a lot. Is there another butterfly (or other fish) that you've had better luck with for aiptasia control? I've read aurigas (aka threadfin) can do a good job as well. I haven't read anything about Pakistani butterflies eating aiptasia. I have read that they can be hard to get to eat anything, though. My hunch is that any Chaetodon genus butterfly has a pretty good chance of eating aiptasia, but also a pretty good chance of eating corals.
