I have a 65 Gallon with their stand. Got to be one of the best aquariums made, sad they went out of business. The Weir Design can handle an incredible amount of flow, I modified the overflow pipe to handle the increased water flow.

Wow that's a big compliment, thank you! I'm no guru, I'm just a girl with a wrasse obsession :)
Your stock list is awesome! Very nice fish on that list! Oh and your Dejongi Basslet is STUNNING we need more pics of him!

It is quite a bit smaller than the other two tangs but it has been bold and active since the first day. Surprisingly neither or the established Gold Rim or Yellow gave him any issues when he was introduced. I like him a lot. One of the other names this species goes by is Freckle Face tang and if you see him in person you understand it.

One of my two spongodes can't decide which growth form it wants to take. It has encrusting, branches and now is developing an area of scrolling/plating right in the middle of the colony. Weird but pretty coral.

I believe you're right. At least that's what my other one does. The plate forming and the upturned edges are what had me going ......hmmmmm.

This video is from my 25 Lagoon. Pipefish are hilarious to watch feed. Their eyes are so far from their mouth they have to strike sideways after circling with their heads to nail down their target. :p

My momma RFA. If you look just behind the hammer and just behind and left of the RFA you can see 3 of her babies.
