Wow thats great. Nice sized tank too. I saw a 180 at manhattan aquariums that was used and they were only asking 300 bucks full reef ready but they wanted 800 for the stand!!!!!

okay, day four of mr. tang being in the tank. yesterday he ate frozen mysis and was swimming around great, and now he is sticking to a cave and it seems like he is breathing a little heavy. he is also not closing his mouth. i know i should give him time to settle in but im still worried because i havent been able to keep a tang alive for more than 48 hours in the 1 year and 9 months that ive had this tank. its a little frustrating when i see people with three to five
tangs in a tiny 55 gal for years.

Okay so the tang looks better today. Hes swimming around and he picks at big mysis and eats little pieces. my maroon clown has been nipping at my percs so i am thinking of throwing him in my sump or my frag tank. I think this might have been the answer to the tangs skittishness.

Maroon clowns are abnormally aggressive towards everything.
