How many turbo snails do you have? I see them all over your front glass.

I would say around 6-10 turbos and 40 - 60 astrea other cleaners are 1 serpent star 1 brittle star 3 spiny urchins 10-15 scarlets 10-15 blue legs 10-15 regular ol reef crabs 2 HUGE A.. Emerals and 6 smaller ones.. I have never tried cucumbers or slugs

You should get a sea hare, they are fun to watch.

I can't believe you have all that corraline with 3 urchins in your tank. My urchins keep the corraline clear in my tank. I wish they would'nt eat it, but oh well.

if you get a chance post some pics. that would be cool :jumping:

 

[ray28576]

Wait a sec and I can post some pics in about ten minutes.

I could'nt get one of the sea hare because hes asleep for the night. But here are my urchins amd a full tank shot. The urchin pic is one I just took. The Full tank shot is a little old. I have a sea hare pic but its not very good.

The BG on my tank is photo shopped because I had a glare from the flash on the back glass.

cool, nice tank!! :jumping:
Is your 3 stripe and a cycle fish, he is pretty good size!!

 

[ray28576]

Yeah, he and my yellow tail were my very first two fish. I got them b4 I knew alittle bit about this hobby. I can't bring myself to get rid of him. He is very aggressive. When I stick my hand in the tank. he leaves bite marks all over my arm. Was yours a cycle fish?

 

[ray28576]

Oh yeah, thanks for the compliment.

 

[tronicsdr]

He was a cycle fish for my old 38

apparently not in this photo....

I used to have a 38, 45 and a 55 when I got my 125 I consolidated, my pair of mated FP clowns were original fish too. they are still some of my favorites to watch
He used to be the "big man" in the tank... until I added my foxface, YT, and Lemonpeel I added all 3 of these at once about 6 months ago. The last addition I REALLY want to make is a sohal tang.

I wish my tangs would eat broccoli, tried it once, they didn't like it....When I used to research on this subject, lettuce has no nutrientional value to humans same as it is for fish. It has no value to parrots either and you should NOT feed Iceburg lettuce to parrots, they'll get sick.... :happyfish

 

[tronicsdr]

I still feed my tank a very good variety of crap, I just provide the lettuce for the grazers to keep them from staying hungry and nipping at other things.

:happyfish :happyfish

What kind of star is that in you 38 pic Tron? Do you still have it?

 

[tronicsdr]

He is a sandsifter. I still have him as far as I know, but I don't see him very often..

Lost the maxima quite some time ago, I think my lights weren't up to par and I didn't feed him enough... Poor guy
