Hello everybody! I am excited to be a part of his forum and to learn as much as possible about reef tanks. I grew up admiring my dad's reef tank, and now I have a 29gal setup of my own! It's about 6 months old right now. I have 2 percula clowns, several BTAs, some palys, and colt coral. The anemones and coral are from my dad's tank. I'm very lucky that he has had enough growth to share! I had just one clown with live rock and a CUC for a while before I added anything else. It's all so fascinating to watch! I haven't really out how to take good pictures with my iPhone.

Welcome @KristiYates to R2R. I would think "several" BTA's in a 29 gallon tank would make that a species specific tank!!! How do you keep the BTA's from stinging the corals? Again, welcome....and you've discovered a great forum with R2R.

Now I have a job for you......if your Dad is not already a member of the community, get him to join as well! :D

[emoji4]thanks everybody! @redfishbluefish the BTAs take up a lot of room, but they're all together and they stay on one side of the tank. There is a little bit of coral on the big rock that they share, but they have been on the same rock since I've had them! I don't have a ton of coral, so it all has room right now [emoji4] I will work on getting my dad to join!!

I am loving this forum so far. I've been watching it for a while, and I'm glad to finally participate. There are so many fun things to learn about!

Here's a pic of the whole tank...my pictures always look so blue.
