[TheKleinReef]

aww. I hope you get some rest and whatever else is needed and recover in short order.

Thanks Kat. But if it is a labrum tear, surgery is likely.

I'm praying its not that.

[TheKleinReef]

MRI+arthrogram+cortisone injection Wednesday (17th)

Follow up Thursday (18th)

PT appointment (19th)

Fly home (20th)

 

Definitely makes for an interesting last few days before the holidays. Hah

A labrum tear usually is surgery. My brother tore his last December and had surgery in January. He said the pain when he lifted his arm was like he was getting shocked. 6 weeks of physical therapy and light use for him. He is 100% now and back to work as a fireman.

 

Do you get a burn or shocking feeling when you lift your arm high?

How are you feeling?

[TheKleinReef]

sadly, yesterday was the worst the pain has been. but my MRI is Wednesday. hopefully the cortisone helps and the doctors can figure out what my next step is.

[TheKleinReef]

I want to 1-3 fish to the tank.

What could I add without the tang murdering it? Anything?

[markalot]

Your tangs pick on new fish? My tangs only pick on each other. I added a new wrasse and the only thing that hassled it was the sixline and that was solved with a mirror.

I'm just assuming it will since it was the last fish I added.

Will it not matter then?

I just don't know, all I know is my tangs ignore everything but tangs and the Foxface. The little cardinals actually prefer to hang with the tang, for protection perhaps?

 

You might try a yellow tail damsel of you don't have one already, I really like the personality and mine doesn't pick on anything unless something gets close to it's cave.

[jedimasterben]

Springer's damsels are also peaceful and beautiful

[hey]

My top choice would be, temporarily remove the angel, buy 2 more and have an angel harem. I love angels. Do you have any issues at all with yours and the clams?

i haven't noticed it pick at the clams. but i'm not gonna gamble that 2 new angels don't have a taste for clams. lol

haha one is bound to in a group of them I would bet. I fight the urge to get one every time I am at the lfs, I know I am eventually going to lose this battle.

 

 

What color do you wish you had in the tank is more of a better question for fish suggestions imo.

i think this tank needs some yellow, pink, and blue fish.

thoughts on yellow coris wrasse, mystery wrasse or a blue star leopard wrasse?

i had a leopard wrasse but it made its way into the overflow box. :/

Have you looked at canary damsels? Probably won't take any shit from your tang either even if added last. Leopard wrasse would be cool too I think the only way you will find much in pink fish would be in the wrasse or anthias groups.

actually strike the yellow. i just remembered i have a yellow tang swimming around.

but pink and blue are still a go. are there any attractive bright green fish?

 

or maybe something cool and exotic? dragon face pipefish, fuzzy dwarf lion, golden dwarf moray.... i may be getting too far ahead of myself.

[Arkayology]

You don't have any wrasses, correct? If it were me I would get a pylie fairy wrasse and a yellow coris wrasse. They can hold their own with tangs IME.

the dragon face pipefish would be awesome, I think I remember something about keeping multiples being encouraged. Bartletts anthias have pink blue and yellow all in one lol. Not sure how you feel about anthias though. Mystery wrasse has similar colors as well.

no wrasses, but i'm not to fond of fairy wrasses, and i've always wanted a yellow coris. but i'd rather not get another yellow fish..
