Oh, I love the blue lips. What I am saying, is that they arent ALL that pretty. Some do not have the blue lips and are dull colored. So you have to keep your eyes peeled for a nice one. BTW, they develop that with age.
If you do buy one, get a juvi, and if it turns out ugly, get another juvi, and keep doing that until you get the coloration you want. Here's a nice pic of one...
I forgot I had that pic on my computer...that one was in my brother in law's old "angel reef." He now has a different one, and that angel died. He was 4 in that pic, and died at age 15.

I think my total setup cost around... hmm let me think a minute... $2200 without liverock or fish. You would pay more if you buy all at once and don't look for deals on each piece of equipment. My lighting is 2 x 96 watt power compacts plus the 72" NO light that came with the tank.
I'm not going to get into this with you puffer but this is a thread for pics of larger aggressive tanks not for bashing JCRIM. thanks
Uploading pics to photobucket now.should be a few more minutes.

You have no idea what type of equipment I have. Further evidence that you don't know what you're talking about... as if more evidence is needed.
Hey guys any tips on getting rid of this brown funk on the sand ? I have tried leaving the lights off for a few days ,major water changes, cleaner crews, scooping it out by hand, I even added live plants to try and help pull out some of the nitrates. nothing is working and this stuff grows like wild fire. I can remove as much of it as can be with sand cleanings and scooping it out and using a trukey baster to suck it up and with in a few days its back.
