Hey guys I'm Rookie J. New to the R2R forum. I've had a saltwater tank for a year and a half now. I work at the only locally own fish store in Alaska. Here is my 75 gallon as of today. I will soon be setting up my 180 gallon after I build a stand. Far as fish I have: Sohal tang, Purple tang, Achilles tang, Six line wrasse, Royal gramma and a pair of Snowflake clowns

Welcome to R2R!! I gotta ask are their very many people in Alaska with SW Tanks? Beautiful Tank cant wait to see More!!
 
Where in Alaska how much do coral and fish cost there?

Just above what you could get them off live aquaria. Purples, sohals and Achilles start about 225 and vary with size.

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
