Fish-
1 Powder Blue Tang
2 Female Lyretail Anthias
1 Six-Line Wrasse
1 Diamond Sleeper Goby

25 Nassarius Snails
25 Margarita Snails

very nice tank congratulation. you will need to put more power head and strong then this maxi jet. it's very important to get a good circulation and strong one on the rock.

Very nice setup!
Make sure you keep this photo handy, then take another (same angle) in 6 months.
You will be amazed at the growth, even though you are watching it daily!

how long did you run the tank before putting in this many fish ? My tank has been running for a month and cycled two wweks ago but i only have a few chromis and a percula in there right now b/c i was afraid i would cause an ammonia spike if i put in too many fish right away. nice tank by the way

Very Nice tank!! I agree though too many fish too fast is not easy on the Bioload. In the future I would add them one or two at a time. I even do this with my very established tank, just to be safe. Good LUCK!

Thanks guys. The camera isn't 6 grand, it was $800, and the lens was $1150.
I have 100 pounds of LR in the tank and 80 pounds of LS. For a filter I use a 30gal fuge. I'll add another powerhead to it, thanks for the advice guys!

nice tank...love the aquascaping. My dads really into cameras and when you said "it wasn't 6k it was 800$ and the lense was 1150" that sounds exactly like him. He has a D70 and just spent that much on a lense, some sort of telephoto thing, BIG thoug.

Yimmy - Yeah it's an amazing hobby but expensive also.
thirty6 - The anthias have been doing great! They are the most lively fish in the tank, love them!
