NICE! that's a fine looking specimen. Do you have any full tank shots looks like you have some cool fish?

Very nice!!

Where did you get your crosshatch from? He looks really awesome! I haven't seen one with such bright colors before. He is a very nice speciman.

Whroops. Meant specimen...

Great looking trigger. How big is he?

Nicest looking one i have ever seen....so much red/orange in the tail and the blue/green on his body is comparable to a lg angel......nice trigger!!!

Thanks for all the replies everyone! Yeah he is a great looking fish and full of life. He has been munching 3" silversides all morning (little piggy).

Absint - I will get some full tank shots and put them up later today. My current stocklist is: Emperor Angel, Blueface Angel, Queen Angel, Crosshatch Trigger, Niger Trigger, Clown Trigger, Naso Tang, Hippo tang.

FishyMel - I got him direct from Hawaii. A friend of mine owns one of the best LFS in Colorado and he called me to tell me they had one for an UNREAL price 2 weeks prior to Christmas. He was net caught off the Big island of Hawaii.

LukFox - he is about 8.5-9" he is bigger than my emperor angel, but is as sweet as a puppy dog. His trigger has not gone up once. I am very happy with him.

really nice bunch of fish you have, some of my favorites. looking forward to your full tank shots!

The colouration is absolutely stunning on him. If those pictures are truely representitive of him then you've got yourself one awesome fish! Very very nice indeed!

Great looking fish and tank looks awesome as well.

WOW! That trigger is amazing! Makes me seriously think about getting one eventually, even though they are a little pricey. Gorgeous fish and tank ccampbell57!

beautiful fish!! congrats!

Nice fish. I seen your post over at SWF. When you say UNREAL price, how good was it?

Hey JM - I paid $200 for the fish!!! It was a deal that I couldnt pass up.

I got a call on a Monday morning from my contact and he said that there was a Male crosshatch that had just been caught and the guy in hawaii wanted to make some quick cash before christmas.

It took me about oh say...2 seconds to scream out YES!!!

I paid $30 less for my Blueface!

that is a damn nice show fish. that's now on my to get list when I upgrade to 225. thanks for sharing Magnificent!

Man that's awesome. Congrats on the beautiful fish.

Thanks fantastic! He is definitely worth the expense. Awesome to watch

Awesome tank and sweet fish!

Thanks Charger...is this the same as Mike22Cha?
