    aiptasia in reef aquarium

    ...aiptasia in my tank!! Awesome job! Would recommend to anyone, if all else fails!! He isn't the prettiest looking fish, but he's sweet and loves to eat algae too!! We have two clowns, angel, dragonet, hippo tang, dottyback and copperband shrimp, and a yellow goby. They all get along with the scat.

    Mated Pair- Perculas and Blue Hippo Tang--Markings

    ...especially baby spinach is a little better. My tangs will not touch spinach or lettuce anymore, they're spoiled. They actually still prefer dried algae sheets to anything else. My dwarf angles LOVE grape caulerpa. My Copperband Butterfly will even eat chaeto. Blenny only eats dried sheets.

    180 Reef Stocking list

    ...them since they are male and female. I do feed heavy though, so I definitely thinks this keeps all my possible nippers (dwarf angels, copperband butterfly and filefish) in check. I currently have 2 mated pairs of harlequin shrimp in my reef, so I definitely don't want to risk loosing them...

    Fish With Clouded Eye

    lol, I know what you mean. I had a copperband once that was hell bent on destroying everything lol, had to give him to my friend to salvage what I can at the time.. this was years ago before I thought LFS people were "experts". They said that they will probably like close to 80~90% sure that it...

    mother's day present for btldreef

    ...angels. It is always a risk with dwarfs, but I've found that well fed fish are less likely to nip, and I do feed heavy. I even have a Copperband Butterfly and a Filefish in here, neither of them nip either. And go figure the two fish I've had nip corals were a Sailfin Tang and a Ocellaris...

    tangs

    ...and I think it was because she came from a tank that had a YT in it. I had to get rid of her, she was beating on my Blonde Naso, my Copperband Butterfly and dwarf angels. Now I have a Purple Tang, and it is soo peaceful. I really do think the YT ruined my Sailfin's peacefulness. You might...

    Planning for fish in my first reef.

    ...1 Yellow Eye Kole (any of the Ctenochaetus species will work. You could also do a Scopus or a Yellow tang, but to me, they're boring) 1 Copperband Butterfly (because you mentioned you liked butterflies, these are one of your safer options for a reef, but you have to be positive that it's a...

    BTLDReef's 155G Update

    ...this guy or a powder blue, and he was way healthier. I think the contrast between colors on the Blonde Naso, Purple Tang, Yellow Belly Hippo Tang and the Copperband Butterfly are going to add a real nice splash of colors. The hippo may ultimately end up in a FOWLR, but for now, he's in the reef.

    ...works. I know that some people have good luck with peppermint shrimp eating aptasia is there anything that will eat majanos?

    pictures: acan, lps,sps, and fish

    I wish our camera took better pictures, the golden torch barely looks gold in that picture! I love the Copperband too. Quickly becoming a favorite, especially since it eats like a pig and leaves my corals/anemones alone!
