Copperband update… 👀
Making progress.
He’s officially off brine and now eating live oysters way more aggressive feeding than I expected.
But… the tangs are on him.
• Purple Tang leading the charge
• Bristletooth backing him up
Tried the mirror trick helps while it’s there… then they remember him again 😅
And yeah… I went for it.
He’s now in the general population 😂
So far he’s holding his own, staying active, and still eating, but definitely getting tested.
Not calling it a win yet… this fish has humbled me before.
For those who’ve kept one long term—
when did you release yours?
Did aggression ever fully stop?

Purple tang hates my new anthias male and my flame hawkfish:/ anyone with experience with mitigating this?
Keeping the tang balance in my reef tank🙏🏻😊,should I add more or keep the peace ?
Can yall spot the sandy looking particles on purple tang? He has gotten them before but was gone by day 2 we are on day 2 now…. Is this normal?
Tang being neurotic? Playing his nightly game? Little bit of both?
Hey all! Just wanted some opinions. I’d like to add a Juvenile Tang (I know they will outgrow the tank) with plans of trading it in for another juvenile when it gets bigger.
Has anyone had experience doing this? Pros and cons? Thanks!!
Purchased this tang a couple of days ago and have noticed today one of her eyes has gone weird. Here is a picture of each side. Any ideas what it is?
