Vernon Saunders Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 I have been recently joined the Reefing part of SW aquariums. I started with a 10g fish only tank. I had a small 40g with a few LPS and soft corals (for about 6 months) and my Sailfin Tang forced me to recently upgrade to a 90g in order to keep him. The 90g has been up and running for 2 months and am hoping to start getting SPS into the system soon. In my tank I have a Chalice, Hammer, Pagoda Cup, and Clove Polyp for corals. Fish include my sailfin, 2 Maroon Clown (with a large Rose BTA), 3 Cromis, Diamond back Goby, and a Damsel (whose name I can not remember).

The polyps would just dance in the current... Mesmerizing.There's a lot of stickheads in the group so if you ever need advice getting started, just post your questions.That sailfin will force you into another upgrade in the next 5 years. [emoji1] My old Desjardini was starting to get cramped in my 6' 125 gallon and he was about 6" at that time and thick as a steak. They can eventually get to dinner plate sized and can get aggressive at that size if they feel cramped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicordeaFreak Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Stickheads are those who are connoisseurs of the Acropora variety of corals haha. I’m slowly becoming one myself...

Vernon Saunders Posted January 24, 2018 Author Share Posted January 24, 2018 I am wondering when the next club function (event, meeting, etc.). I was looking at the event page and couldn't find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think theres anything in the books yet. We just had our Winter Frag swap a couple weekends ago. Usually we have a meeting once a quarter.

Don't be fooled by the term "stickhead" It is another form of addiction that will separate you from your money. :))))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
