I hear ya, I've sure spent my fair share this year, problem is the more time I spend with the tanks the more things I find to spend $$$ on, I am trying to keep the 750 nice and clean, but just a basic wipe down takes over an hour, someone had this brilliant idea to make the stand taller to fit the sump underneath and now all the maint. is done on a ladder.

*drool*. Love those LPS.

I have that boxfish too and he doesn't bother anyone. I have tiny sexy shrimp that I suppose he could easily go for but he doesn't. He just surfs the upper current all day and seems to rather enjoy the free ride. Then dinner time comes and he's a maniac! Has to compete with the tangs and does a decent job at it.

i tried a long horn box fish in my first tank and didnt have much luck ( he had a thing for softies and that was about all i could keep alive lol ) what type of box is in your tank, if he stays nice i may have to try again.
