Originally posted by royalshrimp but wouldent your butterfly and box fish pick at the corals???:notsure: I'm not sure....i had some Xenia and Shrooms in there before that they didn't bother but i don't know how they will react to SPS and LPS. i guess i'll have to try and see

and a full tank shot

I just changed the aquascape in my 125gal to supplement my new 400watt MH. i put the light over the center opening of the tank and then stacked all my LR under it. i think i should be able to get a couple SPS on the very top of the rock and put some lower light corals on the sides and bottom...

its actually not that common for boxfish aka trunkfish and cowfish to release their toxins...actually the blue boxfish is the one most likely to do it and even then its not that often

Originally posted by bigmac I'd be willing to bet you could take your skimmer and use it as a door stop and see no difference in your tank. or a bong :hilarious hell, if your looking for a cheap skimmer you could build your own "counter current" skimmer out of pvc. it would probably cost you...

thanks all, the tangs get along well. i indroduced the achilles last after the hippo had been established which is why i think there is no agression between them. a friend of mine has an achilles tang that he introduced first and now he cant put any other similiar fish in the tank (tangs...

caught the achilles tang still with his nightime colors "on". his HLLE is getting much better...i dont think those scars are going to completely heal :nope: . but they give him "character"

thanks so its probably worth the extra $40 bucks for the electronic ballast (single 250wt)

this may be a dumb question but hey...i'm dumb when it comes to lighting :thinking: whats the difference between an electronic ballast and a magnetic pulse start ballast?

my 125gal has: hippo tang achilles tang yellow boxfish spotted hawk GSM clown unfortunately the boxfish will have to go sometime soon, he's just getting to big for this tank i agree with trojan hippo tang convict (zebra) tang for the two large fish others could include dwarf angel fairy wrasse...

stay away from TopFin..their glass is low quality AGA and Oceanic are the best, unless of course you can get Starphire Glass (a little pricey though)

original star trek was the best...James T Lovemuscle (he got some in every episode) if were talking cartoons then HeMan Masters of the universe was #1 Saved by the bell was good Cosby Show Cheers Knight Rider The incredible Hulk was my favorite

Originally posted by MorayM I put in Julian Springs Sea Veggies and the tang looked at them as if they were from another planet. Nothing in my tank was even remotely interested, but when the Formula 2 flakes hit, they went crazy again. my fish reacted the same way at first to the Sea...

ich ich and ICH

Wow those are some severe cases of HLLE...i would also reccommend some Vitamin C supplements (Kent Marine C) and some Julian Sprungs Sea Veggies (green and red). My achilles tang was coming down with HLLE and earilier this month i started using the Sea Veggies and Marine C as well as the Selcon...

i glued mine...it leaked when it wasn't glued. like rye said its easy to just replace the bulkheads
