Maybe down the road... Tank is a bit more calm without the frantic darting and skittishness from the big rabbitfish. I still have the uspi foxface, so im satisfied with that for now. Considering a siganus corallinus or a siganus virgatus. Saw some at the LFS today and they caught my eye.
S. corallinus is a stunning species, I remember seeing a thread of someone who had an adult and it was a stunner. Never seen one in the LFS though so I stuck to the streak of Magnificents and after having 2 model citizens I couldn’t have a tank without one.
Not much currently. Everything is running like a champ, and I want to say I'm at 4 leathers. Its 3 a.m., Ill get some pictures when the lights are on.
That’s good to hear that everything’s running well! Do you plan on trying another gorgonian in the future?
Yeah. I want to do it again, but finding a gorgonian here in So. Cal is kinda a pain. Went to 3 different LFS's, a few days ago, couldn't find one. The red gorg is still around, the stump that the rabbitfish left is growing. The yellow was a total loss.
That’s great to hear about the red, hopefully you find another. I’d love to try some form of harder coral similar to the levels of Acros in my 4’ tank again but finding them is hard without going an hour and 30 minutes away.
That regard im fortunate as there is 3 reputable LFS's within 30 minutes drive from my house. I never had luck with sps in general, let alone acros or any of the other 'poras.
Yeah, I’ve only grown acros once before I started my nano as an acro heavy tank and they went alright. Montis either die off or do absolutely nothing for me though.
Officially at 3.
Look at the size of those YTs! Also, the Cebu lubbocki is a stunnerStill on a hunt for softies, if your selling, hit me up.
Nothing to add as its going swimmingly! Nitrate & Phosphate is a bit high so Im trying to work on that. N was at 48 and P was at .6 (tested with hanna). I normally do 10g a week water changes but may need to step it up to 15g a week due to HEAVY stocking imho.
The yt's are about 4 inches each. The purple is closer to 4.5 and the little sailfin is right at 2".Look at the size of those YTs! Also, the Cebu lubbocki is a stunner
I’d love to have my flasher display but he never does even with my two lubbockis displaying at eachother every so often.
They sound like they’re the perfect sizes, wonder if the YTs will get much bigger as everyone else says they stay 5” or less whilst PTs get 6” or less.
Im hoping the yt & purple are about done growing. I know the sailfin will end up a beast but, I'm hoping im in a 180g by then. My other half calls the 2 yellow and purple tangs the 'things' from Dr. Seuss lore.
