Awsome spec. Nice looking...Can be aggresive..I suppose about the same chances with any other..
HMM, I like the Tessie idea....just curious, has that Queen Trig been getting along ok with everyone? She has a bad reputation.

Oh man... here comes psusocr to make the rest of us look bad.
Sure your tank was awesome and everything. But I hear now that you are planning a tank full of hermit crabs and basslets. Just buy about 500 of those little minnows and your tank should be ok.

actually, TurningTim and i spoke on the phone for awhile throwing around some sump/refugium ideas and this is what we had come up with.. thats my 55 gallon refugium what ytou can see is my 45 gallon sump with all my equiptment in it, pumps etc.
i did house my huge engineer goby in there with a mandarin(to control the pod population) and some problematic damsels lots of crabs and snails etc. etc
do you think the triggers will be fine with the lion fish and tangs??? have they fought yet or anything like that???
id ont think your reffering to my tank but if you are i dont have triggers. IMO i wouldnt put triggers with anything, but thats just me.. I couldn t have triggers especially because of my lions, shark, rays etc etc.

HAHAHAHA
i know your upset and all but in due time i will have another aggressive tank , and i will also only house tangs in my new tank due to the size, maybe another russels lion.. it wont be your typical large reef tank for sure..

i noticed that your skimmer is almost completely under water in your sump, i was told to raise my skimmer up so that it is sitting in 9 inches of water instead of 15 but it looks like yours is sitting in 15 inches of water. is your skimmer working properly? i was thinking of trying my skimmer on the bottom of my sump until the forum guys guided me to raise it so i never got to see if it would have worked.

my skimmer works just fine....i've never heard of it being submerged to deep into the water.
