So Marvin...........are you gonna share your secret? There's something to it other than waiting for the update email. Cause when I do, by the time I get there (seconds) the fish Im looking for is already gone. Be it an Orange Back or Gum Drop Goby.

Well, he is here and now he is in "the box" to get acquainted to his soon to be new friends. It's been a couple of hours and he still seems to be a bit stressed out.
Was this the same with yours Marvin?

I will chime in. I had put a rather large Rubber T (pipe) in the acclimation box. He would hide in it when people walked in front of the tank. The 2nd day he was out all the time. I was amazed at how fast this fish acclimated, not like the other flashers I have that took almost a week before staying out in the open.

That is a great looking gish :)

Thanks Eternal. I added a large elbow, but he is laying beside it. I'm hopeing he will snap out of it soon. Its got to be quite stressful on these little guys to be shipped around the world.

Ryan,, I was determined to get him, I just lucked out. I'm sure there are more for the takeing.
He is doing much better this morning, I added a large pvc elbow last night to give him something to hide in, but he hasn't even gone in it.
He is out and swimming in the box this morning so my hopes are high.
