I was at Petco today, to get more water conditioner and lookit decorations. While wandering the saltwater display (planning for when I actually have money to get that stuff!), I saw a very interesting fish! It had long, but round fins, on an elongated body. Pure white, with black spots... and they were
solid spots, too! It was labled as "grouper panther".
So, I get home and do research, thinking this would be perfect for my 210 tank when I set it up...eventually.
I found out I probably don't want this fish for several reasons, after all. First, they get UGLY (in my opinion) when they grow up... not to mention they're then 2 feet in length. Granted, my tank is 6 feet, but that wouldn't leave much room for anything else.
But anyhoo, their "larvae" stage is quite nice!
