lol nice bro me an the wife were looking at it and she was all gung ho on buying stuff lol no shackles... nice fish man

[cutterx23]

Nice, that's a good deal then. Keep her in that mode... This guys a beast. Can already tell 10 minutes after being in the tank that you'd never want two. He keeps eye balling his reflection. Then sees it at the far side of the tank and rushes over there, and so on. He's a little scared of the horn shark tho

Reminds me of some Midas and Red Devil fish I used to have when I did freshwater.

looks like cousins* and they are evil fish lol I loved them! huge teeth aggressive bites your hand and smacks face against glass to attack you for just walkng by haha

That is so cool! What a great looking fish

[Dugaru]

Damn! Nice pickup! Yeah, no way in hell you want multiples of those. Even in the wild you rarely see multiple near each other. Absolutely beautiful fish though!

Brett,
They are mean ass fish. Good luck! He's going to be the boss of the tank in no time.

Yes sir. But they are such rad damsels. Love watching them in the harbors while fishing. Good luck bro.

they had those rays for $50 first thing I though miley ray! lol

[cutterx23]

I know they are gnarly, hopefully he just gets along with the sharks and any new ones I add and just stays angry with his reflections

I'm curious - this is a subtropical fish; will it survive in the warmer temperatures of a typical reef tank? Is the garibaldi like the Catalina Gobies, and their lifespan will be shortened? LiveAquaria lists the same recommended temp range for both - 60-77F

[cutterx23]

It is in a shark tank that runs at about 70 degrees.
