Hi fellow reefer’s just when I was having to rehome my tangs, we found a 120 long g tank. Wohoo, now I’ve got a couple more years with my guys! Our current tank 100 gal with 20gL sump is 15 years or more old.
We found out our phosphates were off the charts so first step update R/ODI. Done, zero TDS and phosphate. Now just working on getting current tank ready, water changes and vacuuming crushed coral substrate. I’ve already got fish and starfish picked out at Dr. Reef Quarantined fish,
Naso tang
4 Chromis
Fairy Wrasse
Bonded pair clownfish
Fire fish Goby
Plan to direct add to new tank so they get settled in
Current tank
Sailfin Tang
Hippo Tang
Yellow Tang
1Chromis
Lemonpeel angel
Came on Live Rock 30 years ago
Mushroom “ Rock”” probably 50 or more
Tangs knock off swimming by so mushroom’s growing on substrate
Paly rock with 100 heads or so
