I honestly never wanted angels but my husband did... if you have one, you may as well have more. My husband wants his reef tank and we spoke at great length about the direction we are going now. So far all my fish are reef safe aside of rearranging corals while I sleep. I managed to be lucky enough for my puffer to be working now. I made the mistake of buying a large mature wild fish... no kidding he would be doing the things he did in the ocean. Now he is content to swim with his fire shrimp at night and wait for his home made food.

The tangs have settled down and I am thinking the fight was over hunger. I was really late feeding them and did things backwards to the way I usually do. They are really grumpy when they are hungry...

I am hoping I don't have any uphill battles in the next few months... any insight on what this might be? I remember when the tank say cycling for over two months, watching the diatoms appear in a matter of hours... then I was told of wait until you get the hair algae... You don't know what hair algae is until you see it in your tank... then it turned brown then other stuff showed up... it never ends but if I know what to expect around the bend I at least will be ready for it.

So can you let me know whats coming up for me, so its not a surprise?
