Wow. That's plenty of room.

Wow. That's plenty of room.

Yep. I told him to go bigger, but he just wouldn't listen...

 

[Anirban]

He's got a 55g.

Lol Lol...

 

[BoneXriffic]

Yeah but with his 10 gal sump he really has 65 gall so its ok

 

[Anirban]

Yep. I told him to go bigger, but he just wouldn't listen...

I think we should call Tang police....

 

[revhtree]

Cool. How big is your DT?

8ft by 3ft by 2ft, 360g and about 450g total water volume.

I plan to add a Gem tang if I can get one for free. I will not rule out another tang or two. Hey, I love tangs!

Rev, I know you know the risks of the clown tang. I thought I could do it too with a small one. I've had mine for 3 months or so and was the last fish added in my 300dd. He's a holy terror! I hope all goes well for you.

Cool..., I will need your help with stocking ideas when my back and wallet has healed for my 8'x4'x29" DT, which has a 160g sump.

Great job last night Rev!

I think it is fantastic that you were able to shift from drip acclimating in 8 buckets to dropping salinity in 4 separate QT tanks in under 2 hours and ended up losing what, 3 fish? I know you have a sweet fish room setup but that is still pretty impressive. Very well done!

I appreciate all the input that changed my mind! I would still be dripping! Ha!

Thank you and the firefish is just fine today!

Swimming around with the others. Got the lights on now about to feed a little. So ended up losing the two that came DOA.

Yuck! I may need to start a poll before he goes in. My wife wants that one bad!!!

 

[Daniel@R2R]

You need some wrasses...LOTS of wrasses... @evolved, @eatbreakfast, tell him I'm right!

That's a tough choice to make.Any fish can be a model citizen for years then something happens to them and they turn rogue on you.Hope your Regal angel will be a model citizen.I had one for a while and had to take out a few corals that he started to nibble on.

I agree too. Amazing job Rev. I was on pins & needles myself, just wondering how it was going and how you were holding up. It's an exhausting time. Acclimation is a "hurry up--slowly" type of deal.
