Why yes there have been some updates to the tank. Since the addition of the crosshatch the fish have been doing great. My Hippo again decided to freak out and get VERY territorial so I removed all but 100#'s of the live Rock. This basically is a tank with double the swimming room without all the territorial issues.
While I thought that my stocklist was done I couldnt help myself when I saw a BEAUTIFUL male Blonde Naso tang with 3" streamers.
He is now sitting in my 55g QT and will remain there for at least 8 weeks.
I will be uploading pictures soon

I just want to say I have been following this tread for a long time and your tank is beautiful. I just have one question.
How do you get away with haveing mutiple Angles in your tank.?
Is there a sertin order they must be interduced?
I olny ask because this site says you can only have one per tank...
Thanks, Countdown

Thanks Crash! Yeah that LFS is good for people that dont know what is going on. There is a lot of cheap fish, but the quality is poor. I would say you have a better chance of buying from ***** then from there.

Hey Countdown - Thanks for the props. With the multiple angels it is a matter of knowing the aggression of the fish. My emperor was my first fish and at the time was the smallest. I believe that angels are similar to triggers. If you have a very aggressive trigger, if you add it last and smallest it will tend to work out. Now there may be issues later on when it gets bigger, but you never know till you try. Also with multiple angels it is essential IMO that you have a lot of hiding places. These guys like to "chill" in my rocks all the time and they need a place they call home at night and when they feel scared. Without any of these places there will be issues. The last thing is coloration. I truely believe the reason most angels fight is because people that buy them get them when they are Juvies. Most angels are the same black white and blue when they are juvies and as they mature they change. When I added my Blueface and my old french, they were of adult or changing colors while my emperor was still a juvie.

Hey KJR - I will definitlely get a shot of the tank...it is really boring right now, but I will get something up.
As for my -- avatar, it is a Clipperton Angel. It is awesome!! It is my second favorite angel next to the Clarion. Someday I will have these 2 in my tank (when I win the lottory).

HEy Crash! Yeah Premier just changed ownership. Jack and Will sold the store to Dave (the store manager for the last 18 months). It is now called AquaMart Online.
Still the same great store with wholesale prices to the public...they also have a better selection of fish IMO.
Yeah I saw the crosshatch there too...they want double what I paid :)

Oh deffinatly an improvment from trips there in the past . Sad thing is we stopped there on the way to the aquarium and saw just as wide a selection of fish there . I was truely disapointed in the DTA . They only had 3 species of triggers . A tank full of nigers some humu humus and in the big shark tank they had a black durgeon I think it was couldnt get a good look at it . They had a few angels but I'm not good at IDing them .

The majority of the angels in the aquarium are Passer Angels. I agree with the fish selection there...pretty poor. Although, if you go to the restaurant at the entrance you can see the biggest Queen trigger I have ever seen (24"+).

The food is horrible. The fish made it bareable. THere are much cooler fish in the resturant.
The black tang was down to $350!! If I had a reef, it would have been in my tank a while back
