Its possible the anthia had internal parasites,or could have just died.That happens,and its a chance we all take when we add something new to our tank.
Your Lemonpeel may have scratched his eye on a rock.Probably no big deal.Just keep an eye on him.

Thanks Dustin, but I think I'll leave the anthias alone for a little while, until I'm more confident about housing them. They truly are a beautiful fish, and I wouldn't want that to happen again, will stick to the original list now, and start planning for the Six Line!

Evening Guys

Been snaping away tonight as there are a few new additions and the tank is looking really cool at the mo, so thought I'd post a photo update. However, I wish that I stumble across a magic lamp and for it to grant me two wishes, firstly to get a better camera to really do the colours in my tank some justice, and secondly to have fish pose as well as Dennis's!!!!

You got a great looking tank going there my friend.Its coming along perfectly it looks like.
But dont trust that crab.If you'll notice that claw looks like a knife which indicates a predator.

Thanks buddy, your comments appreciated as always :D I've got at least 6 of the little blighters at last count!! I hadn't been to concerned at first, but they seem to be getting bolder and bigger! I also niavely thought that because the had filter feeders that they were semi harmless and not too much of a threat, but have noticed of late the occasional missed strike at Aaron and Lola!
