Thanks for the welcome and the compliments. I have a 70 gal corner tank on my first floor and the pictures are my 125 upstairs. My tanks are fish only, no live rock, only fake and dead coral. I'm just using 2 fluorescent lamps on each tank. They both have wet/dry filters. The 125 has a large Ocean Clear canister filter in addition to the wet/dry, a skimmer and 25 watt UV. The 125 has a large external return pump in addition to a submersible for the skimmer and UV. I have had the tang for three or four years in my 70 gal and the queen for a few months. The queen was introduced into the 125 a few weeks before the tang to give the queen a little advantage. The only aggression has been the Queen trying to start a fight but the tang pretty much ignores it. The 125 also has a Tusk, Blue throat Trigger, Rainbow Wrasse and a flame angel.

And hello and welcome

Thank you and

At night when he sees his reflection he starts to tear back and forth like he is insane. I swear he must be going 20MPH. Maybe because he was cooped up for so long in my 70 he loves being able to have some swimming space finally.

I do that all the time too... I mean, not your tongue, my tongue. Not that you don't have a bitable tongue, but I, Well... you know what I mean:jumping:

I think he wanted to say that these fish would not be compatible in a tank this size. In the ocean a Queen Angel and Shoal tang can reach 18" in length. Queen Angels are notorious for becoming very aggressive as well. I'm very aware of this and I know what I'm doing. I can make adjustments to the tank inhabitants if necessary.

Yes, this tank has a Lemonpeel angel! Nobody can yell at me for overstocking this tank.

I don't have a close up of that one. You may want to consider a flame angel though. If given a choice that is what I would do. This is a flame in my 125
