Great looking tank, I really like the BTA too, I used to have some just like it, they split often for me but wouldn't stay put so I got rid of them.

Thanks man. Its the lyretail anthias. Its a gorgeous fish but mine only eats frozen foods. I have an mp40 and mp20 but the wetside for the mp20 broke because a snail got caught in it.. so right now I have the mp40 and a hydro K6. I will soon upgrade the mp20 so ill have 2 mp40's. I wanna try the whole wave thing.

The tank looks a lot better in person, i'm just not the best picture taker!











These are some pictures with the Dim-able moon light!
