90 Gallons of Frag

Really nice tank man. I have a similar sized tank, slightly smaller. Just curious - how long have you had the Powder Blue in there? I've kept one in a bigger tank, and would love to keep one again, but I'm a bit hesitant in a smaller tank...

It's a green zooxanthellae infection not a graft. A graft usually will fight each other. I've had it three years. When I got it, it was brown.

With good reason. I've had him a year. My yellow tang is the dominant one. Before the tangs when in, I was scrubbing my frag plugs every other day. I don't have much algae at all any more. I put a half sheet of seaveggies in every day for them to eat. My yellow has grown quite large. I would take him out if I could catch him. The powder blue I would keep. My new tank will have a powder brown when it is up and running.

Thanks for the reply. So why a Powder Brown, not Blue?

I like Browns for some reason. I got the blue in this tank, cause the brown was left out of my order. If I was going to add all three at one time, the blue was my only choice.
