hey lee and everyone,

Clown (Harlequin) Sweetlips/Grunts - Plectorhinchus chaetodonoides

what can you tell me about this fish? i like them a lot but know nothing about them... throw me the lowdown...:D
 
You want a VERY LARGE tank as they get huge. You also want to make sure that it was at your LFS for at least a month. (They don't tolerate shipping well so it's better for your LFS to take the loss due to accidental death rather than you).
 
You should also know that when they do get to the huge size, they don't have that cool pattern to them anymore. They change quite drastically.

Good luck anyhow :)

You've gotten the low down. All I can add to the above posts is, "Find another fish to keep." ;)
