DUDE!! I could easily just sit in front of your tank for HOURS. I would love to have HALF of what you got going there, absolutely amazing.

Yeah it does well for it's size, I was scared he would get picked on but seems it takes no crap from no one. Constantly grazes and eats like a pig its crazy to see how fast it's growing.

But on the good news is I am finally starting to learn my camera, keeping up with you in the picture quality.

BlueTang<3 11-22-2011 12:42 PM

Picked it up from a fellow reefer, I have seen a few now that have the speckles.

jjntm 11-22-2011 03:49 PM

please let me know if you ever have it split and are willing to ship!!! I have never seen one like that and it would look sweet in the nem tank...

lastlight 11-22-2011 04:27 PM

Gorgeous army of fish they look happy and healthy!

BlueTang<3 12-01-2011 02:46 AM

He chills out it the center of my teal stag colony looks so cool but, when he sees me he takes off.

lastlight 12-01-2011 07:20 AM

BlueTang<3 12-01-2011 12:29 PM

BlueTang<3 12-07-2011 12:59 AM

Well I went a little picture happy for you Levi, my skills are still inferior to a few people on this site but they are coming around. It takes a while to realize some times you can take 10 pictures before you find one that you like. The fts skills are still pretty terrible tho.

lastlight 12-07-2011 01:23 AM

Your blues look really nice man. Is that second last a. plana?

Your arches don't have that cheesy fake look... I like.

Yeah he is a sweet fish, now only is my Achilles could man up and not hide all the time, I believe its a plana. I cant get the colour in the pics its yellow with deep purple tips. Yeah I really like how the rock work came together gives us a lot of swimming space but it limits me for real estate to glue more corals.

reefwars 12-07-2011 01:36 AM

If your ever in the area again I am sure you remember where i live, feel free to stop over.

Madreefer 12-07-2011 03:27 AM

Tank looks awesome. The pic beside the yellow tang was the one I was telling you about. I like the caves, your fish probably love it.

fishytime 12-07-2011 03:32 AM

I dont know......I dont see anything wrong with your FTSs.....they look pretty FN sweet to me mang....

fishoholic 12-07-2011 04:30 AM

Looks great, I also love the arches and caves in your rock work.

tim the toolman 12-11-2011 05:48 PM

Tank looks great. Love the camera work as well. I am considering a set of 8x80 t5s by ATI as well. If you could would you buy the same lights again? They seem to work awesome
