"Look what I bought you honey"

For my birthday my wife gets me something for my tank :O!! Normally this is followed up with me making a trip back to the store for an exchange but this time she scored. I love it and it works in my peaceful reef tank, problem is I dont know what kind it is or what to feed it! I dont use dt's or any phyto but I feed frozen cyclopeze nightly. my cal is 400 and alk is 5.6 (15 dkh) and this is day 3. What do you think?

Yes and there is a orangish gold in it also. I believe it to be a derasa but I am uncertain.

Very nice derasa. At that size, you shouldn't have to worry about target feeding it.

Nice derasa! Agreed that feeding is not required at that size. He will not take cyclopeeze (too large) but phyto woulodn't bother him!
