I purchased a panther grouper a few days ago.however I did not qt him b4 placing him into the main tank always add melafix to the tank when acclimating any new fish into my tank he and the other tank mates have shown no signs of stress or illness .I purchase all of my fish and LR from one LSF only and have never had a problem with any of them as far as ich or paresite problems or illness.
125 gal hes about 7-8 inches
he ate very well the first day placed into the tank that evening
I fed him krill and shrimp chunks
hes is housed with
vilotan lion
silverscat
magnifcant foxface
snowflake eel
2 damsels 3-4 striped
and a black brittle starfish
crushed coral substrate
with LR
he gets along well with everyone
for now the damsels wont fit in his mouth they will be moved to my 55 gal as he grows
hes very outgoing as with all of my others fish.he has learned very fast that I am his feeder.I do hand feed my fish to a point.I stick feed my eel but i hand drop bit at a time for the rest of the tank they all come right to me for feeding
as he grows larger i will have to get a larger tank for him min 180 gal.but he shows promise for some personality the other fish like to lay on his back including the lion he just kinda sits back and enjoys the hug
