Paracanthurus hepatus (Blue Tang)

The Blue Tang is with us 9 months now, and has become little bigger in that period. She made it through two rebuilds without much trouble.

18 september we bought 3 rocks filled with 5 corals. Also we saw another nice looking tang, which was swimming together with a blue tang in the aquarium where we got these corals. Maybe he will be bought as well in the future.

Yesterday evening I noticed three white spots on the Blue Tangs body. This could indicate a starting white-spot plague. The Blue Tang's behaviour hasn't changed yet, so hopefully it is in a very early stage and can be treated without much problems.

Well, yesterday I wanted to make a picture of the white spots...guess what...nothing to be seen. We still decided to mix some Garlic in the food however, just to be sure.

The Blue Tang is coming close to her birthday now, her first year in the aquarium is almost a fact. She gave us a scare some time ago, and now she has another white spot on her body. Still no change in behaviour, so I don’t know what to think of it.

Been a while ago now, but she has made her first anniversary!

The Star Fish is still getting smaller, now my wife said she saw the Blue Tang nible on the Star Fish. Maybe it's hunger with the fish and not the sea star?

Since we figure he is becoming to big and has too little to eat we decided to put him up for sale
