Re: Bangai Cardinals
OK ... i have some bad news ... the male is still not eating and so i am not sure if he is currently carrying or not but i just watched another dance by a 2nd female with the male and BAM
 out popped another egg sack ... unfortunately she dropped it right over the top of my anemone and well you guessed it they became a high protein meal  now i know that they are trying to mate i will have to keep a closer eye on things ... i still dont know even if they do mate if i can even catch the one holding the eggs ... anyone have any suggestions on that?Current Aquarium(s) Description: 120G Tank w/150lbs Kaelini/Lalo LR Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: Nov. 07 Other Intrests: Golfing, Skating, Nascar Last edited by Gooseman; October 8th, 2008 at 09:13 PM.

Re: Bangai Cardinals
In case no one was aware, the Banggai's are a IUCN Red List endangered species. It would be awesome if you can raise the young.
You can do some reading at WetWebMedia on banggai breeding to see if you can find some helpful info. Good luck  Current Aquarium(s) Description: 125 reef, mostly SPS Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: 20 years

Re: Bangai Cardinals
ccCapt that is some good reading info Thanks! dustin i have begun to assemble a small tank for them ... i have the sponge seeding in my DT sump right now ... i just hope i wont have to permanently keep them in the isolation tank because of breeding ... but will do what ever is best for the fish i suspect ... this is a huge learning experience for me ... never been a fish daddy before
