Here's an old pic for comparison:

Hef - that looks really cool. I like the idea. Cant wait to see the tank with rock back in it.

That looks really cool with the "rock lip." Your Naso btw, looks 100x better

 

[hefner413]

Thanks guys.
Rock going back in today! Pics later...
And regarding my naso - I actually wish he was eating a little more. Pretty picky eater - will only eat the algae clips. My fresh seafood blend, Mysis, or Formula pellets - he won't touch... Eats the algae quite aggressively - but just the algae. Should I try something different? Ideas?

Great job on hiding the pvc. Looks great now!
My Naso is very picky too, much more than my Powder Blue who'll eat anything in sight. What my Naso loves though is the Emerald Entree frozen food and also the Angel/Butterfly frozen diet. Try getting the Emerald Entree, it's made specially for tangs.

--, is yours an Elegans (blonde) too? My lituratus (standard) will eat everything, some things I wish it wouldn't either like sliverside chunks for the puffer

I really like the PVC Hef, I'm sure it will be even more hidden with the rock back....Your Zebra almost makes me want one, I still prefer the Goldentail or Snowflake though.

No, mine is a regular Naso I "inherited" from my friend. It's the one I treated for ich with hypo for 4 weeks and now it's in my DT. It's always eaten a lot, just very picky on what it is. It won't touch formula 1 or 2 for example. But will eat mysis, emerald entree, angel formula and algae. Very weird that it has become best friends with my powder blue. Keeps following it around all over the tank and I was afraid they would fight.

thanks for the info. I'll definitely try this out. I just hope that it eventually starts eating the regular diet as it gets bigger.

ROCK ON! the ROCK's IN. At first I didn't like it as much as the initial layout - similar, but I didn't like the new look. I'm liking it more now, but... any ideas?

 

[arlene1995]

AWESOME! I think it looks really natural. I bet your fish and eels are really happy now! Looks good!

 

[ccampbell57]

Looks good Hef! I would make another cave on the right with the rock.

 

[rcreations]

I think it looks good. Lots of caves for the fishies.

 

[iyachtuxivm]

Tube looks good rock looks good eel looks good

everything looks good!

 

[hefner413]

Wow! Thanks all!
and yeah, I'm definitely going to do more with the pile on the right. I just put those down randomly. Most of it is tonga, but I'm going to make something out of it.
And here's a couple pics of my blue that I just took.. NO ICH!!!!

 

[iyachtuxivm]

nice looking fish!

 

[regina13]

It looks great! I love the rock. I think I may steel your idea for my aquascaping when it comes time. What is your next fish going to be?

 

[hefner413]

I'm seriously thinking of my two angels next - the Emperor and the Queen. They'll be juvi's/or changing and will go in at the same time. I might hold off on them though and add one more fish prior, but I just can't decide on another one...

Enjoying your thread. Keep it up!
