Me And My Buddy Chuck

[reef keeper]

chuck is a pretty badass guy. He has a pretty cool personality, and isn't afraid of anybody or any thing.

I've known Chuck for a few months. Every time I saw Chuck, we kind of hit it off.

The one thing about Chuck, is that he is so freakin greedy. Whenever he eats, it's like he has no regard for his buddies, and just eats till his gut is bloated. It's like he has no off button. 10 minutes later, he begs for more.

Chuck is like a dog, but cooler, because he doesn't mess up my lawn or my couch. He's not like a cat, which is even better.

Chuck is a total badass.

I can hand feed him lol. What a pig

What up Chuck.

What up Chuck.

Up Chuck? He sure will if he eats too much

Chuck is beautiful but so are corals - pick one because you can't have both with Chuck !

 

[reef keeper]

I'm not too worried if Chuck samples the corals. I know quite a few people with sps and emperor Angels.

Trick is to keep him full. But if he nips then he nips. It's a big system and I'll be going even bigger, so there will be lots of colonies to minimize the damage.

He just eats so much!


I have an awesome Red Sea regal too, so I won't be having zoos or acans!!!!

Thanks for your comments reef keeper !
I have always wanted a juvi emperor but wasn't sure what corals would be left once he / she was in the tank !!
Maybe I will think about it ....

 

[reef keeper]

The risk I'm taking is its a sub adult. There a thread on reefcentral about reef safe Angels, and I believe 75% or 80% of people reported emps not bothering corals. Mostly, they just puppy dog and beg for food lol. Chuck is a brutal brutal beggar.

Eats everything though lol

they are a beautiful fish, I have one and he is in no hurry to change his colours, which is fine by me..

 

[reef keeper]

He's just a wee lad. It will be a year or more before yours starts Heath.

Beautiful fish man. You should snap a video of him feeding =D. My wife loves to hand feed the fish. It all started years ago with training oscars and pacus to jump out of the water for food pellets. She still tries to do that for every fish =D
