It could be just that. TALK haha.

Had I gone 8 feet like I should have, I'd likely be talking about bigger fish.

In the end I'll walk into an LFS...a big fish is going to bat a sexy eye at me and I'll take him or her home just like everyone else.

You might change your mind if I can find that darn link...

Isn't there a site that showcases all kind of tanks in video tours? It may have been that site. I really just can't find it!

You sure it was 400g? I want to get to sleep tonight too and I sure as hell can't find it.

Tighten the vice!! More pressure to find that link!

Brett, if you can find a Black Cap Basslet, get one. They're awesome. I've wanted one for some time for the 90g. Pretty hard to find though.
As for the big fish vs. little fish, I agree with you guys. Smaller fish in pairs or groups are much more indicitive of the natural reef. I think that was the major reason I got another tank: one tank for SPS and small fishes and one tank for the larger cool fish. My second tank was supposed to be a FOWLR but I couldn't help myself and added some corals.

No I am not sure at all. I just know it was big. I think it was 300 and something. I am also sure it was a European tank. I just don't have time to look for it tonight.

I got to bed a little before 2. Couldn't find anything. Maybe to narrow it down: which forums do you frequent? I just registered at 3reef last night and took a glance through a few pages but didn't find it. Let's do some detective work and narrow it down.

This one? http://reefvideos.com/

Although I don't know if they have European tanks on that site. I thought it was mostly a buncha guys from Toronto for the most part.

Yeah that was the site but I don't think it was on there.

Pretty sure it was somewhere on RC. I don't really check out any sites other than here or RC. It was a link that went to another site though I think.

Don't know.

Ditch the swallow tails and do a nice harem of centropyges

Their shape lacks the BEAUTY the swallowtails possess =) Plus the 'tails seem safer?
