pics of my 150 what do you think?

[rslinger]

So i got it up and running. So far i have two heni's (there was three but one got caught in my overflow), big yellow tang, huma huma, niger trigger, valimnigi tang (sold to me as something else), and moron gold stripe clown. i would like to but a puffer and a lion fish if i have room what do you think. i know i will not be able to keep the val. tang for ever, but i figure this is better than taking it back to the lfs so they can sell it to some one with a 55 gallon.

Any new pics with the new eel?

 

[rslinger]

Yeah you just responed to the pic. of the eel. I will post some more full tank shot after my kids go to bed if there is time before the lights go out. If not tommorow for sure.

here you go. In all honesty right now the meanest fish in there seems to be the GSM. he even bullys the triggers. The niger is the most scared. always in a hole in the rock. the tangs are big 6 in plus and the lion is about the same. puffer is 2 in. tops and the triggers might be three.

If you notice i am getting awsome coraline aglea. 100 pounds of this rock was dug up from under a foot of snow this winter. one of my friends got mad and tore his tank down one day and through the rock in his back yard. I dug it out three months later. Really starting to look nice. I do have t-5 lighting i like it. 47 gallon sump 20 gallon fuge reef devil skimmer.

Looks good. To help the fishes aggresiveness buy alot of fake rock of make some and Build alot of caves. Also feed like 3 times a day for the triggers with steamed spinich and such.

Well i got a 150 pounds of live rock yesterday for less than 2 dollars a pound. I also have gave away the val tang to someone with a 380 who will be able to keep way longer than me.
