Here are some updated pics...please excuse the pics. I was borrowing a friends slr and didn't have the flash I usually use and was lazy and didn't edit the pics. I am also still having some trouble with my caps. I will also apologize for the amount of pics. I kind of get carried away taking pictures ;D Anyways...here are the pics and have a Merry Christmas!

Thanks...they are Bartlett's. I have lost 2 due to aggression between them. I am going to add two more to the shoal. The tank is a standard 125g. display, 20g tall fuge, and a 75g sump.

Awesome setup. I love all the pics. It seems like you have your share of fish in a 125. How many fish do you have? And do you have any probs with nitrates with that many fish?

Thanks a bunch. I have some ha problems here and there but they are getting better with the fuge and running phosban. It has never gotten really bad though. Between the ha and fuge nitrates don't show up on the card. I have 14 Fish right now. The list looks like this

-5 Bartletts Anthias
-Blonde Naso Tang
-Yellow Belly Hippo Tang
-Scooter Blenny
-Red Mandarin
-Green Chromis
-2 Picasso Clowns
-Mystery Wrasse
-Copperband Butterfly

Thats cool. You should be careful with the tangs. The naso is gonna get pretty big.I would love to own a Naso, or any tang, but I have a 75 gal so I dont have the room

Thanks but they should be fine. They have plenty of swimming room. It will be quite a while before they will outgrow the tank. Eventually I plan on moving up to a larger tank anyways...hmmm 300g dd? maaaybe. I can dream can't I? haha
