45 is too small for the anthias but a pair of purple firefish would be pretty neat, or you could get a pair of engineer gobies for a different look but make sure your rocks are sucure because if they build a tunnel underneath them you might have a landslide.

Yeah I think I'm gonna give it another week or two because this fish is quickly becoming my favorite. I feed my fish a lot of food and hopefully that might curb his taste for coral. And as far as your copperband stealing from your sun coral, I know how that goes. I have a little stinking...

I tried a copperband I think 3 times over the past few years with no luck whatsoever! So i thought why not try a different family member and saw the longnose At my LFS. I was told he had been there for 2 and a half weeks and after watching him eat like a pig and observing the pricetag of only...

So I went downstairs and looked at my tank this morning to find that on 2 of my sps frags had been damaged. One looked like it had a bite taken out of it exposing the white skeleton and the other just had a tip broken off. Now the question is in my longnose butterfly that I just moved into my...

I do have him in my QT tank. It's rather small, (only one of those 12 gallon eclipse systems) but that's the best I can offer right now. I will try feeding without the garlic and also the algae sheets rubber banded to something. Thanks for the input guys I'll let you know what happens to him...

yes as Meowzer said they are compatible, however you better have a fuge, a large amount of LR, or be able to supplement pods for them because those and other microorganisms is all they will eat. P.S. Meowzer... Love the new bunny ears! lol

Hey everyone. It has been almost a year since I added any fish to my tank and this past Saturday I went out and bought a Copperband Butterfly. I had previously tried to house one of these fish to no avail. When I was at the LFS on Saturday I saw this little guy for only 25 bucks and figured...

If it's stringy brown stuff, then it is nothing to worry about. Like the first answer said... just poop

No I do not cover mine while I feed it. I just try to stay near the tank and if any of my fish come over to pick the plankton or mysis out, i just shove my hand in the water to scare them away. Kinda work intensive, (and i should probably make a cover) but it gets the job done. I'm pretty...

Originally Posted by socal57che I've seen the issues with algae, but in reading, people seem to be indicating that they are sensitive enough that they should not be exposed to direct M/H lighing. No mention was made about PC lights so I wasn't as concerned about burns. I placed mine in an...

Floor looks Awesome! And sorry about the ick outbreak! I would be very mad if I lost all of those fish, but everything else is coming along very nicely.

Oh man im sorry to hear about the cow fish! Thats a real bummer... do you think you will be getting another one?

yeah, it sounds like enough light, with metal halides you can keep just about anything, how deep is your tank?

Beautiful Tank! The Colors are amazing in there, you get all that Roy G Biv has to offer when you look at it! lol

Hey bullitr, I have been following your tank diary but never said anything to you about how amazing this tank is!! Great job, i cant wait for all of the SPS to grow out! Should look great!

Any New Additions or pics of the tank Oceana?!?!?!??!

i feed mine jumbo myisis, but the mysis are to big for my turkey baster so i have to do it by hand and it could be a bit of a drag sometimes, but when i feeling lazy ill turkey baste it full of plankton and it loves it, i feed it probably every 2 or 3 days on average. It's great i got it...

it's a 150... and its a bit run down at the moment, My mother has been taking care of it(not very well), and it doesn't even have a protein skimmer running on it right now, but now that i am home and ordered my new skimmer things should start turning around.
