With all due respect reeferrookie I have done research. But I was actually looking for some personal experiences that are often more useful than standard research. I would be interested in your suggestions, as I am sure you are quite knowledgeable, but I guess you didn't have any. My tank has been up and running for over 10 years.
Well, you don't know these things till you ask,do you? Most other forums have tank info listed. I have had a BTA for about 3 years and have had none of the horror stories associated with them . I guess I have been lucky. I drip acclamated for about 2 hours matching salinity and temp. I only feed about every two weeks a small piece of silverside. When I put it in the tank ,it wandered about for a short time then settled on a small piece of LR. I moved the piece in front of a ledge in my aquascape,he moved under the ledge, and has been there ever since. It likes moderate flow and seems to get enough light from my Nova Pro unit. It took my tank raised Clown about a month to start hosting, and they have been buds ever since.
Hope I answered some questions and did not mean to be a wise guy.
