He never bothered anything and this summer just disappeared, the only fish I had issues with was the african flameback who picked at my corals for a few months and about the time I decided he had to go he stopped and have not had any issues in about 6 months.
Hiya, Love the tank Greg! It's amazing that this tanks only been up for just over a year now, right? Kim/Benton, AR
Thanks Kim, it's still a work in progress, the tank is now 10 months old. I am now setting up a 125 and 60 frag tanks; so I have even more to keep up with....
OK the tank is now almost two years old, as some of you know Bryant put in a new water tank and all my wonderful corals in the tank died off so at this point it's just a fish tank until I can get to the point of adding corals again, I do have corals and they are in my other 120 which I will post about later. At some point I might have to replace all the rock and substrate and if I do that I might as well go with a bigger tank so for now it is what it is; good for a laugh if nothing else.
Since the original post is still messed up (I'm assuming you have already posted it there) How much live rock do you have in that bad boy? My 200 had roughly 300-350 LBS of live rock and It still doesn't look that packed fool. So either you have a whole lot of rock or your rock-scaping skills are impressive haha.
You know I like my rock for two reason; more rock more places to stick coral (even thought there was no room left before the water issue) and filtration. I have more rock in my sump than most have in their tank. I will say my new tank, yes I have a second; has less rock; but only about 50 frags so far. Pic's to come once the hair algae dies off.
Any problems with the Coral Beauty when your coral was thriving? How 'bout the Damsel, does he play nice with his tank mates. I love Azure and Yellow Tail Damsels but everyone tells me they are too aggressive? Love the Lemon Peel.
Thanks; the yellow tall damsel was a recommendation from Whitney Butler because he knew I fought flatworms all the time, ONE Yellowtail Damsel in your tank and you will never have another flatworm. The Coral Beauty was added to chase my African Flameback so he did not have time to nibble on my coral which he did on rare occassion. I will say once I moved my clams to new tank they are thriving and my acan colonies were the subject of harrishment. My new and improved SPS tank also has a yellowtail blue damsel and a coral beauty, promised pics are yet to come. On Saturday we will be changing out to LED's if everything comes in..
