Red Acanthurus - Picture

TomSundin Jul 11, 2006 02:53 AM

Hello everybody!
Here is a pic of one of my newest additions, enjoy.

I bought 6 red ackies from Rare Earth a few weeks back. They are awesome! They eat anything and everything I put in front of them. Their favorite is roaches (eublaberus prosticus) but crickets and pinkies are eaten with almost as much enthusiasm. They've grown like weeds. Put on at least 3" in the last 3 weeks.

Thanks for looking // Tom

Beautiful ackies! Thats great news about how well theyre doing. I got a baby yellow on last Friday and he still runs for his burrow everytime he sees me and he still RARELY comes out. He'll come out, bask for a minute (no more than that), eat a cricket or two, then go back to hiding. He does this a few times throughout the whole day. If I look at him while he is out, which is VERY uncommon, he runs away like I said. Basically I never even get to see my new addition. Were yours like this in the first week or so? I hope he doesnt stay like that. Thanks for sharing,
-Adam
