Thanks Boatdrinks ,Thats when I brought him home about a month and a half ago. He was less then two inches . He has grown a lot already . He's such a baby he hides from me when I go to the tank to feed them .

Great tank mitzel.
Everyone's seen my tank but I changed my rockwork tonight. Let me know which you like better. This first pic is old and the second is new.
Of course the first pic is much cleaner but let me know which rockwork you like better...

Actually most will probably prefer the first because it's just a better pic... more fish out, no algae and clearer water.

I think that the second pic looks better. All ya gotta do is wait for the water to clear up and to scrape some of that algae and it'll look like a million bucks!

Thank god you said that because I'm pretty much stuck with things the way they are unless I take another 2 hours to rearrange again. My fish seem to have decided to rearrange a little themselves last night.

aw2 you think a nano is not good for a clown yet you have an eel that will max out at 5+ feet in a 200 gallon tank seems kinda one sided to me

Definately like the aquascaping in the 2nd pic better... seems like it will be better for the fish as far as establsihing territories goes as well...

For some reason I think Jcrim and I will end up with identical tanks before this is over .
I'm inspired to get an eppullate shark now insted of a bamboo. and that black tahita moon sand is SO cool I think everybody should have it.

That's a great compliment... you won't be sorry.
I'd be interested in what you'll do as far as inverts and will you have any polyps?
BTW I miss my naso tang... one of my favorite tangs.

I have a few hermits that were shot full of radioactive juice I'm put in there and I was thinking of some Zoo's up on the top of the rocks But thought the fish might eat them .
Your tank is sweet as can be. I only hope and pray I can pull off something as nice .

The bamboo shark died . I'm not sure why. And the sting ray jumped out of the tank while we were gone one day. so I no longer have either one . The ray was very easy to keep , never had trouble feeding. the bamboo was easy too. I didn't know very much about them When I got them so I'm sureI wasn't doing something I should have been and thats why the shark died .
As for the filter I'm not sure the brand of overflow/sump But it holds about 10 gallons of water and has bio balls and An asm G3 skimmer . Then two Mag drive 700's for the return. And then a small power head driven spray bar . I will try to get a few pics of the sump this afternoon. Today is cleaning day so I will snap a few pics of it all taken apart .

HAHAHAHA....I might be wrong, but that seems like a huge difference to me. Even if I didnt also have a 300gal. tank, with a large pond and another tank on the way, my Whitemouth Moray would still be find in that 200gal. tank.
