+olaggie01 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 Wow the cardinals look as big as the yellow tangs. Nice setup! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yeah, the cardinals are a little large. Not sure how they got so big as they were about the same size as the tangs when I got them years ago. I guess since the tangs are more active, they tend to burn more calories. Cardinals = fat and lazy I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+olaggie01 Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 So, a few questions about my tank stocking list. Main tank: 360g (72x42x27) Frag tank: 80g (48x24x16) I have the following fish: 4 yellow tangs 1 blue tang 3 clowns 3 PJ cardinals 1 blue green chromis 1 coral beauty (in frag tank) 1 pygmy angel 1 flame hawk (in frag tank) 1 melanarus wrasse I'd like to get a few more wrasse in the main tank and a few angels. Can anyone suggest an large angel? Emperor? Queen? I have mostly SPS in the tank, but I do have some acans that I can move to the frag tank. Will hammer/frogspawn be ok with the large angels? Chalices / zoas? I also have a large anemone island with 5-6 RBTAs. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+olaggie01 Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 Might be a little out of my price range. I'd like to be able to feed the fish as well. Thinking about adding a naso as well. Maybe the following: Naso tang 1-2 wrasses 1-2 angels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoganC Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I love my wrasses, a radiant wrasse is awesome and mine has never bothered my coral. Yellow flanked fairy wrasses are amazing in person, and I love me some leopard wrasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Agreed on the leopard wrasse and yellow flanked wrasse. Ol aggie, you can check out my yellow flanked wrasse next time you come by. I've never even heard of it and when I saw it in person, it was stunning! I had to have it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+olaggie01 Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 Thanks for the suggestion on the wrasse. I guess I should build a net around the tank now. Any thoughts on angels or other tangs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+olaggie01 Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Some updated pics. Starting to pick up some frags as the tank has been very stable over the last few weeks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+olaggie01 Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 Had a nice update typed out and then I forgot to hit reply. Picked up some more frags over the past 2-3 weeks. Alk has been steady at 6.4-6.6. Ideally, I'd like to be around 7 but I'll wait to fix it after my next 2 orders arrive. Picked up an juvi Emperor Angel as well.

+olaggie01 Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 Picked this up from Dallas, not the same coral, but looks similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+olaggie01 Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 Same reefer in Dallas sold me this as a Jason Fox Grape Juice. Mine doesn't quite look like this yet, but it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better start shucking some clams! [emoji12] He is alive and started to eat pellets actually. Great feeding response so far. Will try Frozen mysis later today with the rest of the fish.

FarmerTy Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 No fair! You want to train my regal angelfish to eat and I can train your emperor? I feel like I got the short end of the stick on the angelfishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I got the short end of the stick on the angelfishes. Not out of the woods yet. Need to make sure it wasn't a one time event. Also, he needs to eat mysis like the rest and be able to fend for himself in the big tank. You can try some of the blue zoo food mix. I think they got him hooked on it.

FarmerTy Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 You should show everyone that sweet acclimation package blue zoo sent with the fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+olaggie01 Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 This one you mean? Regarding the packaging, pricing, selection etc., Bluezoo is up there with LiveAquaria. Health of the fish is most important however and so far this fish looks great. Will definitely be ordering again from BZ. Will be looking to order more after the angel moves out of QT.
