However the 2nd CBB I tried died 2 weeks after I got it.

My CBB was a pig when it came to mysis so I have no idea what happened.

I have to look up Achilles Tang to see what it is but it sounds like it is a sweet fish.

And that is exactly what happened, he ate twice the last day I seen him like a piggy.

Well I just looked up the Achilles Tang and all I can say is WOW nice color's but holly **** $240 from J&L!!

That would be enough for my wife to throw out that "D" word.

Just show her the price tag on a black tang, or jewel tang

Or show her pictures of the Achilles They are a nice fish, but ich prone, and they want (and will) rule the tank.

A Blonde Naso is first on the list, then a Powder Blue Tang after that who knows.

Not much new but I thought I would update my thread with what has been going down.

Decided to re-do my LR and while I was in there I put some small sprayer bars for the returns of my closed loop to help disperse the water flow a little better. And this is what I came up with for the aqua scape.
