I have this tank for 1 year now, it's a 90 gallon. I started with artificial decor because I figured it would be easier to maintain. 1 later and I just changed everything to Live Rock. I made some trades for fish with my LFS to so I can eventually do a reef. My previous fish were all agreasive. Tell me what you think. I worked very hard ont he aquascaping.

Yes hopefully in like 3 months. I want to get a mated pair of percula clouns, a mandarin dragonet, a blonde naso & a hippo. Them I will upgrade the lighting and you guys will help me pick out beginner corals. I also just did some plumbing check out the thread in DIY.

The Sohal is cool with the angel. I made some trades with my LFS. They held all the fish because I couldn't just put 170 pounds of Live Rock in with out messing up the biological filter. The only 2 fish I kept that I guess were reef safe were the Sohal, and the Yellow Tang. Now the Sohal will not leave the yellow tang alone for a second, I will try to get them to take him in as a trade for something else as well.

As you can see im a big sohal fan and own one myself so i know your pain i keep him with 3 other tangs so it can be a bit rough at times.

BTW I don't look at is as flaming me. You probably know more than me and I appreciate your help and concern. I hate when people get nasty though, not that you did. After all if not for these threads than most of our knowledge would come from the LFS and they are better equiped to teach business not saltwater fish.
