All these polls lately about size is making me feel insecure about my shallow reef build.
Shallow reefs are so much fun!!
I just picked up a new “nano” build - I believe it’s a 25 gallon tank (95 litres). It’s a 3’x18”x1’ tank and I look forward to playing with it and getting it wet!

That's not a lobo. Let me look cuz I forgot it's name.
This is not the right name either but same coral.

This is it.... acan pachysepta. It has a extremely powerful sting to other corals of they touch. My chalise is melting.

WHAT?! Lol ohhh ****… here it is…

I LOVE big fish! Roger the Goldlined Rabbitfish is currently the largest but Mac the Maculiceps Tang is gaining and the Desjardini is right in the mix as well!

How big is the Mac? I saw a little 3” for $90 at a LFS. I thought it’s a steal. What’s its temperament?

BIG FISH is still the topic of the week and today let's put a spotlight on our very own BIG fish! Of course your big fish may be a big fish to someone else but let's still see what you got!

1. The Notorious B.I.G. F.I.S.H. - Do you have a big show fish in your tank? If so what is it and let's see a photo!

2. What is the size of the "biggest" fish in your reef aquarium? Could even be a small one. :p

That’s a true beauty! Do you own him? If so how long and how often do the colours change (if ever)?
Yes. It’s our little Vampire. Only about 4 months. It only turns white instead of yellow when it’s hungry! It kinda looks prettier in white! But only for a moment then it goes back to yellow.

That Rabbit is gorgeous I never seen that type before I’d like to get one


I really need a better pic of my buddy with the front glass clean and my light installed but he is a bit sneaky, but my biggest is my yellow head
