Thats exactly what I have. If the vho's are 6ft they are 160watts each.

Personally i like the blue-jaws, Oh-well. Tomini tangs are cool too. You definatly like the "different'' tangs, (kole,tomini,) almost everyone with a big enough tank gets a yellow or blue. Well i just got a new fish!! It's a keyhole angel, it was in one of the display reefs at a LFS for a month or two and they recently remodeled the tank so they sold the keyhole to make way for a multicolored angel. In the tank tank at the store he was in with clams, feather dusters, LPS, and SPS so figured Why not. In my tank he hasn't bugged any corals but i caught him nipping my feather duster so i might trade it in,(the duster) Heres a pic, but something is still screwed up with my camera, when you try and zoom in it shuts off... :notsure: BTW: Don't go FOWLER on us!!!

I'm pretty upset too,
i was ready to trade in my feather duster for the angel but now she crossed the line...she's nipping at two of my favorite corals, (brain and candy cane
) just look at my poor brain
...i'm gonna take her back tomarow,(lfs closed for today) but if she kills my brain before then i'm gonna use the shop vac...

Hey feduke, about that water change, your stuff shouldn't die, everything in my tank looked bad last week when I added my new refuge, but now everything is WAY better than it was, so no worries, especially in a tank your size, youll be fine.

That what i WISH would happen... but im not as lucky as you, the fungia and brain are both already dead, each are bleach white, but i think theres still hope for the digi beacuse it hasent been getting any worse for a couple days!

Just got my livestock order in from an online site. They were pretty awsome prices. i got:
6" kole tang ($25)
12 cerith snail, 12 mexican turbo snails, 12 nerite snails ($25)
9 ricordea yuma ($20, was only supposed to be 5 poylps!)
5 Ricordea florida ($20, was only supposed to be 1-2 polyps!)
4x4" zoo rock COMPLETLY coverd in what looks like blue and yellow zoos ($20)
Everything looks great soo far, the zoos are almost fully opend, and the rics are opening up. The tang didnt get acclimated because my mom folded over the edges of the bag like the acclimation instructions said to do to get it some oxygen, but the bag must have tipped over shortly after she did it beacuse she came back 5 min later to see the bag empty. The tang is now floating/swimming 1cm from the sand, breathing almost normally. Im hoping they normally do this, and it isnt dying.
Ill post pics tomarrow since the halides are off for the rest of the day

Well, when i said u should be fine I meant on the healthy things. It sucks that you lost them. What should I google to find this site?
