![]() ORA Borealis in the middle, it has doubled in size in the last month and a half..... But I think the base should be a bit darker might move it a bit lower in the tank??
![]() ![]() Not sure what's going on with this Chalice ? It was much darker and the back 1/3 still is..... Doesn't seem to be loosing tissue? And if its bleaching out why? It's on the bottom of the tank. ![]() |

![]() Couple things I've noticed about the Achilles tang
Lots of flow......as much as you can provide this fish loves turbid water Bullying.....Achilles should be added first if lots of tangs, while they can become aggressive them selves and make it hard to add other range they don't do well with being picked on and your shooting for stress free as Achilles are ich magnets. Food.........be prepared to feed this fish like no other fish you've fed, mine gets pellets every hour and could prob eat more. Disease ......they are ich magnets that's why no bullying and lots of food and flow. Size.......be prepared to rehome this tang with in 1-2 years if you can even find a small juvie ![]() Beautiful fish but hard to take care of and some sacrifices to be made ![]()

To be honest if it were me and this my tank, I don't think, that I'd consider it for a 4' tank. They'll do so much better in 6' or more. Maybe if you found a small one with the intent to rehome down the road (or upgrade) but IME small versions of large fish rarely stay small for long. Probably not the advice you were wanting to hear, sorry!!
