Nah, he is pretty harmless. I see him picking at my brain every once in a blue moon but thats basically it. I think the hardest part of keeping a Copperband is getting them to eat frozen food, kind of like a mandarine. However ever since I gotten him, I dont' have problem with Aptasia anymore. Before I would have an occasional Aptasia popping up here and there, so I would wait till they get a little large and zap them with Kalkwasser juice. But ever since I gotten the Butterfly 2 months ago from Chris my Aptasia problem have eradicated.

Did you put the Copperband in before the powder blue? I was looking into adding a CBB but was leary cause its pretty much hit or miss whether my PBT will accept newcomers.

Yes, I had him in there just a litte before I got the powder blue..Powder Blue over all tend to be aggressive against every new fish though.

Yep Chris.. He went through hell and back. First got harrassed by my Sailfin, lost a chunk of meat on the side, then came down with ick...Finally nursed him back to health.

Wow very nice pics man. It seems like you're getting the hang of it.

For anyone that hasn't seen this tank before... That pic of the Blue Mandarin Goby is life size! Its freaking huge and eats pellets like a champ.
