Yes, exactly! When I had my legendary 140 I kept a Moorish Idol with no problem. As I've said before I never did water changes, etc... What killed it was when I changed out my old ChemiPure with new ones. That difference in the water quality knocked it off, even though the water quality improved.

are moorish idols that hard to take care of? I mean I know they are extremely sensative to water parameters and changes but having it die because you changed the chemical filtration media is rediculous.

My favorite that I own would be my Yellow Belly Damsel. I love its vibrant yellow and especially the blue.

usually the ones I dont or cant have. But for the most part Clown triggers, Naso, blue and powder tangs are my favorite.

Ridiculous but true.

Favorite saltwater fish would be a spotted eel. Hyper, aggressive, beautiful.

I have several great fish right now; however, two stand out. My absolute favorite is my df puffer. He is an absolute sweetheart! He is not the prettiest or the most colorful, but he has a great personality

In this pic, he just finished eating. He likes to "lounge around" and let his food settle. I also really like my bird greet wrasse. He is such an active fish! I can literally stand in front of my tank for hours, just watching them. They make me happy...
I am going to try to put in the pics, but I've never actually done this before. If it works, yea....if it doesn't, I'll try again...

Ok, let's try this again...

Re scribble angel above...I still have him and he's doing great. The fish that had for over 4 and did not survive the ich was the powder blue. The scribble I have is a male and looks like the bottom fish of the 2 posted above. Really nice!
