1 Schooling bannerfish
« on: June 18, 2013, 14:47:47 »
I have 1 schooling bannerfish that needs a new home. It's 2 buddies were killed by damsels. Therefore, I had to trap this guy and save him.

Asking $20.00

This fish was reef safe until the damsels were added and before his buddies were killed off.  The damsels killed his buddies and beat him up.  Once that happened he started hitting acans, echinopora, and trachyphyllia.  If you don't have aggressive fish and can get him some friends he will probably leave your coral alone.  They went over a month without eating coral.  Then the damsels were added and it all went down hill.

Well, he eats well and has been doing well in the reef tank.  However,  every day I'd notice more of his fins missing.  The damsels will not leave him alone.  Therefore,  I trapped him and put him in a qt and he has been in that and eating for a week.

Thanks! He made a great addition to my tank. He's already out swimming around and is eating.
