Here's my pinky size Hippo Tangs.


Well, after a year of drooling and window shopping, I finally got myself 2 tiny hipppo tangs and 2 cleaner shrimp. The hippos are really tiny, real babies, about the size of your pinky.

I bought 2 just in case one of them goes belly up. After 1 day, one of them looks really good and active. The other one is a bit stress out but both of them are eating so I think it will be ok.

Anyone have any success with hippos this tiny?
How fast do hippos grow, just curious?

Sorry picture is so grainy, crapy old camera.
