100g Volitan/Rhinopias tank build.

[cranberry]

When these diatoms go away. I don't want to put all the coralline stuff in there while there's diatoms and I'm not gonna risk putting him in there without his purple.
After all this time he hasn't changed colour. Even though his tank is loaded with coralline, he hides under/in the macro algae so I'm surprised he didn't turn green. I don't want to risk him turning brown.

niceee
do anglers do this?
if i put mine in with some microalgae would it turn green?

 

[cranberry]

Yes, they change colours as well.

 

[skate020]

ahhh jolly good, the brown is abit vulgar and boring lols

 

[skate020]

also in your pic, you can see a green tinge on your frondosa

 

[cranberry]

That reflection from the surrounding caulerpa.

 

[cranberry]

Niiiiice......

 

[skate020]

thats not tooo bad, i remember mine was 10x worse lol, went within a week thoo
wat are the dimensions of that tank?

 

[cranberry]

48" long x 24 deep x 20" tall. The 24" deep is absolutely perfect for him to turn around in.

 

[skate020]

[small triggers]

[cranberry]

There are a few pics on the first page and throughout, but the other 2 fish going in is the:
Rhinopias Eschymeyeri

and Rhinopias frondosa

They are both about 7" long, but they stand pretty tall.
