Ok I've got to ask a silly question. Does your achilles tang like to swim upside down?

thank you all!

I am still working on the website... takes me lots of time as i am new to this...

Hopefully i will have more time after the RSP season to add the rest of the pages.

and marie,

the Achilles was not swimming up-side-down.. he was actually nibbing the algae off the glass

Update for the reeftank.

Good:
1. fishes added - Blue tang, 3 Banggai Cardinals and a Sunrise Dottyback, and a pair of sixline wrasse at sump!!
2. couple of Frags added - Florida Ricordia, and 2 SPS frags

3. My Asfur angel and a 8 inch Shoal tang been added to the FOWLR!! Check back for updates!!

Bad:

1. The Giant yellow Birdnest has fallen! maybe RTN... not sure.. BUT it had sprawned before its demise, leaving little birdnest babies everywher in the tank!!!

2. Red Millepora started to lose its color.. i fragged it and moved it position... i will keep my fingers crossed.

I was asking about your achilles swimming habits because mine spends about 50% of his time swimming upside down,sideways and doing flips. I was wondering if it was an achilles tang thing or just that my fish is an airhead

whooo weee nice tank! I have to agree with what was said above, the placement of it all is very well done.

marie: Ive heard of this before and it's not anything really uncommon (nothing to worry about at any rate). I think it's more than anything the fish having a bit of fun. I think there was even a video of this behaviour on youtube... or some forum maybe?

That would of been my video

. I'm not really worried, he is obviously not "in trouble" it's just a definite conversation piece with everyone who comes to visit and I am curious as to whether it's just my fish or all achilles tangs that do this

just picked up some nice stuff from a fellow reefer tonight... especially the green carpet with a Gold stripe maroon clown...

Now they are all settled in... the questions becomes whether i should put the carpet anemone in the main display or not.....

i have 2 BTA's in my displays already and tehy have been doing pretty good so far. any opinions?
