Lol, yeah that's his goofy Orangjello. Oranjgello has been really attentive to Balki, I'm sure it's helped a lot with his anxiety.

its amazing that that fish will live with your GSP. i have a striped rapheal with my gsp's when they were still in low end salinity. they got along just fine. but even if my raph could live in the salinity they are in now im pretty sure they would be too aggressive for him. how do you do it????

Lol, Orangjello is a lyretail creamsicle molly.
When I moved to the south, I heard the names Lemonjello and Oranjgello, pronounced lih MON gel Oh and or RON gel Oh. It was pretty funny because of how it's spelled.
I don't do anything, Balki and Oranjgello are just besties. Balki is just really gentle and timid. He may become something else as he ages, but for now he'd be lost without him.

Lol, the cutest thing was when Balki was sulking and he swam over and huddled by him and then spit sand on his head, as if testing to make sure he was still responsive. Lol

Here is a little video, it's not very entertaining, but I'm just thrilled that he's not pacing so much.
*I do have a few rocks against the side glass, but the glass is permanently attached to a steel frame in addition to the silicon seal inside.

Love the way you have the rock set up. Need more LR in my tank to make it like that.

Thanks xray, I try to make sure he has lots of places to swim through 
He was SUPER cute today hunting pods, he was so excited to find the swimming buffet. But any activity other than pacing right now is super cute.
