Whats up Brock - great video - any tips for Copperbands is great My personal experience is I have one that I've had for about 2 weeks now. I bought it from the LFS and chose the healthiest looking swimmer as opposed to the one that ate - whoops, broke rule #1. Anyways, I'm feeding it clams from the asian market after freezing them. It's the only thing so far that it will eat. Things that I tried that haven't worked: * live blackworms * mysis (PE - special grade and regular, and Hikari) * blood worms * live brine * masstick on rocks, masstick stuffed in clam * fish eggs My goal is to keep it healthy and fed and then come up with strategies to wean onto other foods as it grows and gets comfortable in the tank. How did yours turn out?

Hey there! We’ll copperband #1 mysteriously died overnight in a power head accident and it was really gross. Copper and #2 lived for two years (the one in the video), and then died while I was away for the weekend. These fish are notoriously hard to keep alive and that’s why I keep trying to crack the code. That’s also why I’m working with the powder blue tang now too. Your list looks perfect! If it doesn’t like that lineup then it’s on a hunger strike and probably won’t make it. Stick with what you’re doing. 99% of the time it’s the fish, not you that’s the problem.

I don’t think 90 gallon is big enough for the hippo tang

The hippo tang has been in this tank fat and happy for almost 10 years. He was the size of a nickel when I got him and always had plenty of swim space. I’m sure all my fish would be happy with a larger tank but for now they would say I’m a good father lol

@@bronxreeferbrock1750 is your tank at least 4 feet long? They also do well with 4 feet tanks
