| These pictures are awesome! Not only are you a talented aquarist but a photographer too. Your tanks are truly gorgeous. Can't wait to hear more from you as I think you will be an asset to helping out when members have problems in their tanks. | |

Did you get your wildcaught pair from Rapps? Pretty much all of my fish in the 150 are WC Rapps fish. | |

| Thanks! I have around 60lbs of live rock, and 20lbs of base rock. Lighting is 4*54watt HOT5; 1*10,000K, 1 12,000K, 1 420nm actinic, 1 460nm actinic. The damsel is actually quite peaceful...it doesnt bother any of the other fish. Granted yellow tailed blue damsels are some of the more mild manored damsels and the more peaceful fish were added first.
I do plan to add 1 more fish and a few more corals within the next month or so. | |

| Im going between a 4line wrasse, some sort of blenny or a watchman goby...mainly depends on what I can find in the shops around here. As for corals Im going to add a few more zoas, maybe a frogspawn or pipe organ, and some mushrooms.
Right now I am running 2 BakPak Protein skimmers, and an AquaClear 50 power filter which has a bag of purigen and a cut up PolyFilter. I keep a bag ChemiPure Elite in each of my skimmers. I am going to add a CPR HOB AquaFuge2 after Xmas. The stand for my tank does not allow room for a sump or proper refugium...thus anything on the tank must be HOB. Circulation I use 2*Koralia 1 powerheads and a Koralia nano. | |

| wow that sucks!! lol no room for a sump of fuge? all the stuff hanging off the back of thank kinda ruins it in a way! (for me lol your tank is awsome) i just hate having to scoot the tank up away from the wall like 6" just to have space for the filters and such!!! looks good though!
you ever think about getting a yellow watchmen gobby and a pistol shrimp combo? its funny cuz they actually pair up and share the same burrow and do maintenace on it! iv seen a pair beat up on a snail cuz it went inside their burrow they look awsome:) look into it! lol | |

| Nah, ya really dont see the equipment plus the CPR products are slim so it doesnt sit that far out from the wall. I have a canpy so it hides the equipment from sight when viewing from the front....its position also sort of conceals the equipment on the sides.
Thanks for the comments everyone :) | |
