Hey Rara, on a side note I grew up in Passaic County, New Jersey, and one of the places I admired these fish was right on your doorstep there in Montclair, then called Aqua-Tropics, and now called Absolutely Fish. They are known nationwide for their ability to bring in some wonderful hard to...

My lemonpeel angel... one of only about a dozen of the one clutch that was captive raised years ago and one of only two in the US outside of Hawaii... My Japanese pygmy angel, Centropyge interruptus, a ~seven year old male that is father to all that were captive raised by my friend Frank...

I've got a ton of angels... my favorite family by far... it's been a while since I posted here but this thread drew my attention for obvious reasons! :happyfish This first shot shows my trio of regals, pair of chrysurus, and asfur... Regal shot from my older system... My Hawaiian bandit...

People are still voting "No way" :notsure: Originally Posted by clintjj I bought a tang from a guy who was moving $5 and it was almost snow white. After about two months of being in my tank he turned a bright yellow. that is the closest i've seen to a pure white one This is common with...

A juvenile Chaetodon capistratus... commonly known as the four-eye butterfly...

The gem tang is a valid species... it's got a very limted range in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Africa... while it's found in other locales, the only place it's collected is the tiny island of Mauritius of the East Coast of Madagascar... where it's exported in very limited numbers by one...

The scopas I got a while back from another online vendor in the WYSIWYG section. I've seen a few yellow scopas but this guy is worth the dough... call him my poor man's gem tang... I have no wholesaler's license... The yellow scopas however are now fairly regularly available... although like all...

No sweat... This info I've gained through the years has to go somewhere... God knows my wife could care less!

The term "white tang" is used to describe a melanistic variant of Zebrasoma flavescens (or yellow tang) that is collected in Hawaii... these are uber-rare, and many people dive their lives away in Hawaii and never see one. They've entered the hobby here and there through the years at very high...

None of these old images survived the board upgrade, but here's a shot of Steve's trunkfish... there is one available online on a major retailer right now for $700...

tuningvis, thank you! I hope I've given you ideas... Use the largest pieces of rock available and go for a real reef look... not just a pile of rocks along the back wall of the tank placing the corals like a display tank at retail store... I hate to see that... remember, this is an artform with...

Thanks all... rest assured that some of his first words will be scientific names of life in the tank! tuningvis, many people think of Sanjay as the Phd lighting guy, but in all honesty beyond that he's a giddy child like all of us when it comes to reef tanks! Aside from the infamous Penn State...

Sharing my other systems from the apartment... my 54 corner and 65 gallon sps clam ricordia system... The last shot is a sneak peek of my new 180 (actually the 180 I bought in high school years ago slaving at the LFS and have set back up!). I'm on the left and Sanjay Joshi (the aquarium lighting...

A couple of sideshots and one of my favorite shots of Jerry, my Solomon Islands Onyx percula... Jerry has been paired now for over a year and has developed into a mature female!

Some top shots... my favorite... I still have many of these corals that are now grapefruits and cantaloupes :) ...

Some front shots...

Again, but with the cabinet open shoowing the refugium...

Are all of the old images gone for good? This would be very unfortunate, but it did force me to search through some old images which was quite enjoyable... here's just a small fraction of my nano from a couple of years ago... This first one showing why it was "the kitchen nano"!
