Well after 2 weeks of LFS looking after my fish she's finally home and the best part is that she's eating brine shrimp already, will just have to keep close eye on it for few days just to make sure she wont be grazing on my corals or Clams, so far she's been in the tank for 4 hours and both of my Tangs are harrasing her but she's not taking any crap from them....Good girl :devilin:

She's gorgeous Dany! I love copperbands. Unfortunately, not ready to risk my FDs to one. ;)

Maybe when I get the FOWLR going, might become a possibility for me. :)

That is a beautiful fish. I have never looked into a Copperband. What are the risks of having one in a reef tank? Will they or could they eat other corals?

From what I've read, they "may" pick at corals. Particularily open brains it seems. However, I've also read that, "generally speaking" they are fairly reef safe. However, there is an apparent HIGH risk of all your FDs becoming dinner to them. They eat aptaisa, which is great, but they also eat FDs which is no so great. :(
