Please, tell me, what is the fish in the first set of pictures-just after the regal tang photo? (It's also in the first larger photo-it's black, yellow and white striped with a funky mouth).

Stunning-to say the least!

Its a moorish idol. He eat's flakes, freeze dried and frozen foods, I've even seen him eat aptasia.

what an insane thread...
I couldn't believe it had been split 3 times so far.
your tank/system are deserving of triple that many posts though.
I remember the day I brought my 72 display home, I was ecstatic, but just reading about this build got me excited....lol
I honestly think I would like to come over for a swim sometime soon.:idea:


hey clint, let me know if you need a hand.
building that is, I'm terrible at convincing wives

Ohhhhh, a doliatus rabbitfish too... I love those!!! Yours looks huge!!! Thanks for the eye candy. :lol:

Wow!
 
Well, that is a stunning fish for sure! Are they are hard to get and take care of? I'm a tang freak, too...I'm assuming there's no problems combining them?

Welcome Cougarman. It looks like you have a sweet setup.

Amazing collection of fish! Very nice indeed! Removal of excess nutrients must be a real chore with a bioload like that though eh?

Except for the occasional minor tiff, they generally get along. It's only when I add a new tang that there are moments of aggression.

Ya, I have 2 skimmers going. An Aqua C 2000, and an MRC 4 foot, dual beckett recirculator. I also have a 90 gallon with a 16 inch sand bed and a 120 gallon refugium plumbed inline. There is also a 130 gallon acclimation tank plumbed inline for new fish.
