How old are the pics in your slideshow? I like your tank

It really makes me want more tangs but I still don't know if it would be right for my tank. I am going to take the Sailfin from my friend but I think stop there. My tank is a bit smaller than yours. Although bigger footprint. 72"x30".

One of my other problems though is that I don't like a lot of LR. I worry about that with tangs since they need places to sleep at night.

Hey. Nice tank dude. Do you use an RO/DI?

It is truly awesome to see that tangs can all be kept together in a large well established system with an experienced keeper... Something positive to see.

Cool to see a little school of yellow tangs.

You must have one hell of a busy skimmer to take care of all that tang poop.

Nope tap water for last 10 years with prime, I have verry clean ( low TDS water in Mission ) When I was in Abbotsford I had problems with water quality, had to be sure to collect tap water on sunny days, seemed to work.

Bubble King SM250, and yes I can fill it with near black sludge in 3-4 days

Most of them are from Jan 2009.
