Well I finally got my 220g moved in, 40g out of my old system, and fully cycled/cured live rock in. Now for the question... Will there be much of a cycle or will there just be a week or two fluctuation? The bacteria in my old water and rock should quickly replenish and start working right...

I think it's best to stay with saltwater plants for tangs. If you have an asian market anywhere close you may want to get some nori sheets, just make sure you don't get the cooked ones. It's suppose to be the best thing for them.

What size tank, filtration, etc???

You mentioned you didn't want a jumper? The wrasse is just as likely or even more likely to jump than a goby. Just thought you may want to secure the top or something, you seemed concerned about the goby...

Rubberband some algae sheets, nori etc on a rock and stick it on the bottom, he will find it...

Ah you should be fine then. A coral banded can take care of himself from my experience, plus the sixline are pretty invert safe, unless your talking pods, or pyramidal snails...

As long as there isn't fish to eat him...IE triggers, big wrasses, etc.

Like PJ said you shouldn't have any ammonia. What kits are you using? With that kind of ammonia you would think you would have streaking etc on your fish. As long as you don't add another tang I think you will be fine with a lion for sure. On the trigger I would get one big enough to hold...

This may get pulled, but it is very informative and doesn't advertise for anyone that I am aware of.

Got any pics? I would like to see the transition!

Whoops should have taken tang size into account sorry about that, absolutely right Shark. I think Seattle has a point in that they won't pick much and if they did I don't see them doing much damage, but I also don't have any first hand experience...

The only Angel I would trust in most reefs would be the genicanthus angels. They are the only reef safe angels from what I have read. Example: Swallowtail, watanabe, lamarks...

Welp looks like you're all right. All three died at the wholesaler.

We are almost planning the same tank, except mine's 220g and reef. Either way you may want some like myself. If I was to suggest anything I would say a pair of blue throat triggers! I will have a pair in my tank. ATM they are chillin' in the frag tank waiting for their new home to be setup...

Flame Hawk!

Your Welcome! Yep the bottom left is the male. I think you would be fine with one in a 110...

Here's a small pic of the pair. They are in my 40g prop atm, but will be going in my 220g in the next week or so... HTH's

I don't mean aggressive reef like clown tangs etc. I am talking my pair of blue throats, and a few tangs. Thanks for the post lion I guess I may need to hold off on the deal, sounds cool, but I don't think I'll be equipped for special treatment etc. How big of fish can a small fuzzy eat...

Murph have you had any problems with yours eating small fish or anthing?

I've got a male and female blue throat for my reef. They are somewhat reef safe, they may bother snails, but definitly worth the occasional snail. Also the lion would be cool if you don't have any really small fish...
