What do yall think of a Aussie Harliguin Tusk as the one BIG fish for the tank?

Originally Posted by small triggers kole tangs have great coloring for a reef!!! and id have to vote for a quad of anthias also!! I will have a group of Anthias in the tank. Just unsure of which one. I like the colors of the Kole Tang but unsure if I would be able to house two Bristletooth...

Originally Posted by Stanlalee chocolate or any acanthurus tang will be pushing it but you wont be the first to do it. chocolate grows particularly large so probably not the best choice. any of the bristle tooths (Ctenochaetus: kole, tomini, two spot, chevron ect) would be the best choice...

Originally Posted by reefkprZ 1/4 inch on front back and sides, 1/4 inch tempered for the bottom on mine. Do you think that I could take two of these and make one wider tank? I would get new side pieces to go the 36" but wwould the other glass parts hold the amount of water pressure in your...

What is the glass thickness used on 75gallon tanks?

There are atleast 5 Companies I have gotten quotes from on a 400gallon last year and they are still there bc I am waiting on a new quote on a 48"x30"x24" 150.

Originally Posted by BTLDreef I'm not trying to argue with you. I just don't know if those are the best suited fish for a reef setting, you own them already so I guess they stay. I just wouldn't add butterflies to the mix or any other angels. I think I'd go with another tang (maybe two...
