    Thanks for the insight, After thinking about it I believe I have decided on the achilles. I think it would look really cool with the black sand I've also been thinking about my large angel selection. The queen is a must but i've thought about replacing the emperor. Would a passar be ok? I've...

    I'm thinking I like the crosshatch pair idea a lot more than I like my inverts so if they become food so be it. Plus if it's called an agressive tank you'd think shrimp shouldnt be able to survive anyways. What do you guys think about putting the sohal back on the list in place of the achilles?

    Sweet, but now the sohal is back in my thoughts since the tang load has been lightened so much I think my odds are much better

    Do you think I'd be ok if I left out the naso and the purple tang leaving only the hippo and achilles for tangs, then I'd have the two large angels plus the crosshatches as the big fish in the tank?

    White spots?

    I'd say it sounds like ich but pictures will help everyone identify your issue. If it is ich then yes its definitely a problem and needs to be dealt with

    A cross hatch pair would be awesome. If I did end up doing a pair do they need to be added together or could I spread it out? And if I added the naso instead of the yellow belly would my tank be able to support two more large fish or should I leave out the naso? I would remove the red coris in...

    Well allright I'll say goodbye to the yellow belly but now I'm definitely adding a naso. I'm all game for a trigger lets here some suggestions on what you think would work and look good. It needs to have decent odds of leaving my softies alone and would prefer it to not eat my shrimp.

    Looking at anthias's I'm liking the maldives and was wondering how many and what m/f ratio would be a good number. So since it keeps changing my current list is as follows Tangs Blue hippo yellow belly hippo purple tang achilles tang (could try to sneak in a naso at some point) Angels Queen...

    I know it's not probably the best idea but heres the plan im thinking of. SWF has the PNG True percs available so I'd buy another clown from them that meets the size of what I need plus a mystery wrasse since they are on sale at the moment. They would arrive saturday. While aclimating the new...

    thanks BTLD- I'll look into the anthias school idea a little more tonight and the yellows have been eliminated from the list. I doubt I will end up doing a trigger cause I don't believe I like them enough for the size they get and food they consume. I'm not sure on how old my clown is, I bought...

    BTLD-thanks, and I think I'll go with your advice on the smaller fish. A school of anthias would be very cool. Do you think the three yellow tangs is overing doing it as well? I'm not the largest fan of yellow tangs but wanted them in order to have a school of fish, but the anthias's could fill...

    Thanks RC, I had wondered if aggression between the two could have been an issue but I never saw the female chase the male or anything of that sort. The hippo and female clown seem as healthy as can be too

    The clown didnt make it through the night. He was floating around the bottom of the tank this morning, and its either day 16 or 17 that I've had him which means no garuntee. Does anyone have any ideas as to what could have happened? I dont think I'll add another clown for awhile so I dont have...

    snapple, I will eventually do a red mandarin, and I'm sure either a lawn mower blenny or starry blenny will come around at some point. My smaller clown is being real inactive right now. He didn't eat tonight and hasn't been moving a lot. He looks healthy but seems to be breathing...

    I'd like to do a blue spotted jawfish but I'm afraid he wouldnt be able to compete much for food and that the other fish would be a bit too aggressive for him. I plan on eventually adding a dragonet down the line once the copepods are very well established.

    I'd love to do a achilles i had just thought they were real hard to keep. So the whitecheek is out. Achilles should be the last tang correct?

    Thanks for the info As of now i'm thinking i'd be pushing my luck with the sohal considering all the other tangs that will be in there. So from my last list I posted I think I might change out the sailfin for the yellow belly and possibly the sohal for a whitecheek. Will this be ok?

    I've got plenty of time to decide i guess since it'd be my last fish. Do you have any other tangs in with it RC?
