so far so good..he doesn't bother anything..I have had him for 2 years, he was in my smaller tank before I upgraded. He's way more bark than bite. and thankyou for the compliment.

Thanks! I think it looks nice too. I asked around alot and researched before I got Pariscopas..and most told me I could either have one kole or one scopas n a 75..and I love the scopas tangs so I got one.

can you describe your set up?
Thanks! My set up? well, I have a 20 gal refugium with 4 chambers that my BF and I made. 1st-intake and Asm G1 skimmer, 2nd-chaeto and rubble rock and sand, 3rd-heater, 4th-uptake/Mag 7 pump. Display tank has 2 Rio power heads (which I am replacing for more flow; so far so good but I want more flow for corals) my tank is not drilled so I have a Continuous siphon overflow. About 100 pounds of LR and 100 pounds of aragonite. I use a 48" aqualight pro with 2 150MH. That's about it. ***)

What a great set up, Addicted2. I've been looking SO forward to seeing your tank after your kind response in my thread!! I love the aquascaping and the look of your tank. Very clean and healthy looking. I don't know about you, but I don't EVER plan on switching tanks again!! Adding more tanks, yes...switching..NEVER!!
Thanks again!! Lisa :happyfish

Thanks everyone for the compliments. I really love my tank. I have had a 29 gal for over 15 years and bought this 75 back in April of 2006. It took me a long time to get everything because I wanted to try and make informed decisions for all the equipment I needed.sooooo, lots of research and questions. PLUS I wanted to get what I wanted the first time around so I waited to buy things as I could afford them. My 29 gal was old school, underground filter and crushed coral..but that's how they did it 15 years ago. I kept alot of nice fish over those years..but I want so much more this time around so I decided to do it with patience and as much knowledge I could get. and now...I am totally happy with my end product! :cheer:

Thankyou! I agree about the switching tanks thing! I am still moving fish..just VERY slowly. I had to do it though..my old 29 finally started leaking slowly around the bottom so I thought.HMmmmm..time to UPGRADE!
I told you I had a "shrimp scampi" too! :joy: Right now I have one false percula named Napoleon.. I am patiently looking for a "Josephine" for him. ***)
