Post subject:  Yellow tail blue tang

Yes it's a hippo tang lol. Here's the story... Dog needed flea meds, she decided to just stop at local PETCO. Ugh... They have a small 2" hippo tang she feels sorry for, and the 5" powder blue with ick and one eye lost to pop eye... Felt really bad for him. Wish I had a home for him... Any way she felt that we needed to save this little hippo tang.... So I set up at 30 gal qt in out bathroom no less. If you seem where we live right now you would understand haha.

Anyway seems to be healthy was eating algae strips at store and not skinny so a start. Just in a 30 with about 10lbs of rock and a current maker lol. We keep house at 74 so our tanks stay at that year round. He has been hiding under the rocks mostly but has good color and no heavy breathing.

Wife said may have ate a few pellets, will feed again tomorrow morning and we will see. Have more water ready to do water change in a few days. Not sure how long will keep him in here, probably a few weeks once we see him eating good and out and about. Hoping he goes into the 120 ok, kinda nervous!!

Anyway sorry for the 130 am rambling. Just got off second shift and wanted to share lol
