IN WALL 40/40=80 GAL BOXED FISH

added 4 baby hippo tangs. seeing how they keep in the system during water recycling. the previous fish i moved into another tank as they got to big for this one and purple tang became agressive. they needed more space. so far eating the pods off the glass

I mostly follow my own rules. Many are based on old school methods or hybrids of them. One difference from old school requirements is nitrate/phosphate control. While nutrient levels in my tank aren't very high, I wouldn't sweat nitrates less than 25 ppm or phosphates less than 0.2 ppm. I still do some water changes but they are only done if something looks "off" in the tank.

AND... I have two Tangs in my 4' 90 Gallon! 😎

I like when hobbyist go rogue, it's perfect to elevate the hobby. I need to check my nutrient levels. I feed the tank alot. as for the fish always start out with smaller fish in the tank so I could give the corals something to go crazy about. after I move them to a large display. I love small fish though. once they are bigger I feel like the job is done lol
