    Angel in Reef Experiences

    And to me it is well worth the risk as I could still always have a lovely FOWLR with some Ricordia.

    Angel in Reef Experiences

    Thanks so far for both of those inputs. I am not a Zoanthid nut so I dont have to worry about those. I am a Ricordia, Mushroom, and LPS kinda guy. I will always start out with a frag and see they go after it and if so then I dont try that one again.

    Very nice tank so far. I like the rock work in the large tank. I have 3 smaller individual Islands of rocks in mine and 2 of them are connected by a flat piece of rock to make an underpass...... What lights are you running

    Tang Experiences Needed

    I am only thinking of keeping 1 from that list so multiples of Acanthrus wont be a problem. The only other tangs in the tank are Vlamingi and Striated Tang.
