I also need ideas on where to get some great looking fake corals, you know the kind they use in hospitals saltwater tanks. We are planning on building a new house within the next 3 years and we are going to have a 300g + Fowlr room divider tank. I of course am planning on keeping all of gthe fish i have now, and want the extra color of the corals, though i know i couldnt keep live ones with my triggers.

umm. There are two places. Look at *****'s... I know, I know... or 2, go to your local fish store and let them show you a penn-plax catalogue. You should be able to order right out of it.

nothing a little bleach solution and soaking won't fix. Do it about once a month and you should be good

I'm talking nice look large fake coral, not dead coral especially. I've talked to my old hospital staff and they use a company called Larsen. I found it online finnally and its awesome, so are the prices though but, it doesnt get discolored easily, they say it stays fairly clean with good flow and they use a hard bristled brush to clean it every 6-9 months. ANYWAYS, as for the stock list, I have an almost 4in Niger, 3in picasso, 3in bluejaw,& a 3in clown triggers. A 5in foxface, 4in speckeled hawkfish, 4in female maroon clown and a 2in male maroon, also a 3in kole tang. And the new addition a 5in queen angel. And in a few weeks/months a 5in ish sohal tang. I think that should do it for a few years till we build and set up the new tank for them and set this one up for more reefish fish I also have about 150 lbs of live rock and 60 lbs of live rock/argonite mix. Currently, no its not too much. I do know that I will end up getting rid of the clown trigger once it gets a bit bigger and before it goes crazy. Then hopefully before eveyone gets to big we will have the new house built with a huge tank for the triggers & angel, and this current tank for the others.

Nice tank and like your collection of fish. I also have a 150g although it is the 6 footer. I don't know if you feel this way but it is strange that my tank looks kind of empty even with 16 fish although one is a eel which I hardly ever see. I think I am going to add 3 more. A large angel, a humu and maybe a butterfly. Maybe it will seem filled then.

she got eaten at some point in time like around a month ago?? not really sure, went to feed her one night and she never appeared,, so thats why i got the queen, LOL. Im still trying to convince my husband that i need to set up my 12g as a mini reef It may take some 'persuasive tactics' but i have a feeling i will prevail.

Okay so a lot has happened in the last few months, GEEZ i killed my queen angel,
got a toadfish, that died atfter a sting from my Foxface which also perished,
ummm got a kole tang before all of that that is fine. Got a GBT anemone that ate a blennie that my hawkfish pushed into it. SO other than that, we are starting the process of planning the new house build that we will start in a year or so, so I am not going to build the canopy on my tank, because we will be building a 500-750g room dividing tank. BUT until then, here are some misc. pictures I took today.
