It's called a lookdown. They are not to common around here.

wow, is that your fish? if so your brave to have one that will out grow your tank in no time and eat every fish you put in there...in the past someone had one in a 300gal that finally gave up on it because it was getting too big and aggressive...a 500gal + would be suitable for that kind of fish...i like one too in my 250gal aggressive carnivore tank but it's still not big enough to house that kind of fish...be more aware of what you choose in your tank or you'll end up with a lot of eaten or dead fish...

Thanks for your concern. BUT I'm well aware of what they are. I do look into the care of the fish before buying. I also talked to somone on canreef about the care for one, since he had one in the past. So far there is no aggresstion. It's been 5 days and the damsels are swimming right along with him. Don't know how long that will last though. BUT I love big fish, you should see my 135g tank, man that thing is looking like a JDM tank nowadays. Trust me, the fish is in good care.

nice...keep me posted...maybe i'll get one too with my blue spotted stingrays and other carnivore fishes, thanks

looks cool! Hopefully he works out for you.. I've heard of these guys just eating what you add later. If you put him in at the same time of the damsels then he sees them as mates.. anything you put in after... he sees as "food"... just something I heard..

He is super cool though.. good luck..

The damsels were in 1 week before he was. They were tester fish.
