heres my first couple of attempts at videoing my lot ,

had to ask peter how to download to photobucket
as I could not do it ( hense senile old git lol) if you get fed up just look at one . peters fault he said put the three on lol

heres a list of the fish

porcupine puffer ----diodon holacanthus

blue triggerfish------odonus niger

picasso triggerfish----rhinecanthus aculeatus

foxface -------------siganus vulpinus

antennata lionfish-----p-antennata

fuzzy dwarf lionfish ---dendrochirus brachypterus

regal tang------------paracanthurus hepatus

vampire tang --------acanthurus tenneti

baby clown wrasse ---coris gaimardi


dont know how the puffer got his scar above his eye
unless it was when he clashed with the foxface at feeding time








when I first had the puffer , we caught him at the lfs and he inflated ,
shot to the top of the tank like a rocket
this looks good, but is very dangerous for the puffer, I had to take over and hold him at the surface of the tank ,slowlyand gently pressing him as he could not deflate, we thought he was going to die it took a full five minutes before he started to go down , I then put him in the plastic bag by hand and got him home, he was still a very frightened fish and was trying to inflate so I released him straight away, and he settled down instantly and we have been buddies eversince lol ( he will never have to go in a net again )
( the fish has got to be very frightened to do this

that little puffer is like that all the time lol
when I feed the lionfish live shrimp in the night, with just the moonlights on .
I have got to stick my hand in the tank, and push him out of the way while releasing the shrimp at the same time, and he can still grab some before the lionfish lol he is costing me a small fortune at 10 p each a shrimp
