List of equipment
1 Myreefcreation with dual beckett injectors
1 Mag 24 Pump: return
2 Mag 18
3 Tunze pump
1 myreefcreation calcium reactor
2 Red Sea 200 ml/mg ozonizer
2 phosban reactor
10 maxijet power head which I recently removed all
1 dual 250 watts PFO
1 triple 175 watts hamilton MH with 60 dual vho
2 UV Sterilzer
1 1/4 JBJ artic chiller
1 1/10 CSL chiller
A little information about myself. I am an active member of the dfwmas.org club. I started off with an 80 gal tank and many members were mad at me when they saw that I had 4 blue tangs, a large female naso, and several other fish where I packed in 200 to 300 lbs of live rock in the 80 gal.
That's why I got myself a 560 gal tank. I just love blue tangs and thought it would be cool if I could get a school of blue tangs.

I totally agreed that's it's a dragonet, and I was being lazy just typing out all the name. As for being male, I still believed it's a female. A male will have one dorsel while a female will have two dorsel.
