3 Purple Tangs... That's awesome!



YA IT IS!

Tho, they are not all 3 in the same tank any longer. 2 are in my 30x30 frag tank and 1 is in my 40g cube. Once my other cube gets water flowing in it, there will be 1 in each tank.

Ya they are one of my favorites too! They were all doing great in the same tank for nearly 2 weeks, and then one decided to be the dominate one and chase the others into the corners, so they both got a new home.

I figure if i am going to have 3 tanks, may as well have 3 purple tangs.

dcook, here ya go. really its not a rear/filter, although i did have it setup as a refugium stuffed full of cheato, but got tired of cleaning it up, so now its just kinda a safe haven tank for new fish/large macro algae and misc rocks.

Nice tank, however personally I would be afraid of that tank failing. 1/2" acrylic seems pretty thin for a rimless acrylic tank.

dang! That's ALOT of frags you got covering your sand bed. lol

Ya! i just fragged about 20 more last night and stuck em in the sand bed too! Sure wish i would get off of my lazy butt and get my frag tank going! Though it does look pretty sweet in person to see all of the different colors on the sand bed. Looks like pokadots
