Hope they all come back fine. They didn't start deflating when you added the Rainbows, did they? Are the Rainbows in the same system?

For about a year -1.5 yrs
ah. I see. Thanks. just wondering if there was chemical warfare between BTA's. for my BTA/clown tank, I've experience this before and cannot pinpoint anything that would get other morphs of BTA and the others are thriving. :confused:

First off awesome tank. Second awesome tanks. Third off I'm a bit jealous, but have some ideas for my next setup :).

Your main display with the 3 AIS is 180 gallon I believe you said correct? If so could you give me an idea of what fish are in that tank? I have a 180g in wall myself and am looking for some stocking ideas so when I see people with similar sized tanks it intrigues me + your setup is gorgeous!

I can imagine the work you put in, but it truly shows from the photos you posted and how well thought out the system is/how well it is setup.

I don't really consider that heavily stocked :) I have a 180 gallon myself and right now have a good amount of fish as follows.


Current stocking list:

1. Sustainable Aquatics Snow Onyx Clownfish
2. Sustainable Aquatics Snow Onyx Clownfish
3. Blue Hippo Tang
4. Melnarus Wrasse

5. Yellow-Flanked Fairy Wrasse (Yellow Patch Wrasse)
6. Orange-Back Fairy Wrasse
7. Carpenter's wrasse
8. Bartlett's Anthias
9. Bartlett's Anthias
10. Bartlett's Anthias
11. Bartlett's Anthias
12. Potter's Angel
13. Flame Angel

Tomorrow I should be receiving my African Exquisite Wrasse Super Male and Yellow watchman goby.

That'll put me at 15 fish total, end of March I have a moorish idol coming in that is eating all meaty foods and doing well.

Around summer time I plan to add the following:

Midas Blenny
Starcki Damsel
Mandarin - after a year

Then in the fall I'll be adding a naso tang, powder blue tang, yellow tang (maybe) and an emperor angelfish juvi. All these fish will be purchased as small as possible and all be quarantined together and added together to limit aggression. Once these last few fish are in that is it. I know this is a big stocking list, but I think it will be okay and the way my rock is it provides ample swiming room + hiding room.

My tank is a 180g fowlr w/ 75g sump so not as huge as yours, but seems to be okay :).

Well thank you for the inspiration and ideas for when I do a huge tank when I buy a house :).
