I called they said they don’t ever get them in only purple and red. I called riptide and fish frenzy. Deep sea is closed today

I would stay away from fish frenzy if at all possible, owner is super rude and their saltwater fish tend to have ick and are way overpriced. If you don't mind a drive check out seaside tropical fish.

Deep Sea get them in the most often that I have seen.

Thanks guys but argh this happened this morning. Which sucks is cause this is my third attempt with this type…I give up I’ll stick to tangs and angels lol so sad….and yes I did get my fish from seaside and a white tail from tongs. Thansk again guys

Sorry to see it happen..I know they are jumpers..did you have a lid?

 

[simplepleasures]

That sucks even with the mesh top. We lost a catalina goby with the mesh top. Little skinny fish need solid tops I guess

Yea I did I attached the screen that I made for the lid. It’s doubled up for an even smaller opening

Beautiful fish, but I gave up on them 10 years ago.

Bah I hate when that happens. I use the fine mesh and still lost a cleaner wrasse when I left the feed door off.
