Anthias have high metabolic rates and ideally should be fed few times a day, the more frequent the better. Most people fail because they feed only once or twice a day, anthias still eat but slowly starve to death. And most reef tanks are quite warm at 26-27 degrees, that does not help with sporadic feeding. There's no way the fish can gain weight.

If eating live brine got chance to wean. Use APBreed TDO C1. Pellets too big they will spit out. Other fish that eat C1: Mandarinfish, cleaner wrasse, moorish idols, purple queen anthias.

Beats polleni grouper upside down! 2pcs up for grabs!

Feed them newly hatched brine shrimp, cyclopeeze and use a kreisel. Endure daily chores for 5 months.

All you need is the right sized pellet. TDO C1. Not hard to feed. Most people fail because they unknowingly feed items that are too big for these fish, same goes for purple queens.

Interesting analysis..if purple tangs get sold at $40-50 which was the price 10 years ago won't this be a more rightful market price?

Philippines shipment @ Iwarna tomorrow late morning: Stocks: Green chromis, springeri damsel, yellow belly damsel, Ecsenius stigmatura (tail spot blenny), Jann's pipefish, Cleaner wrasse, emperor angel adult, bicolor angel, severnsi pencil wrasse 2m2f, blue koran angel, sunburst anthias, keyhole angel, pink streak wrasse (Pseudocheilinops schultz), rusty angel, longnose hawkfish, polleni grouper, paraplesiops poweri, copperband butterfly, cyaneus flasher wrasse, carpenter wrasse, 7banded grouper, porcupine fish, P. wassi dottyback, tomato clown, 6line wrasse, hoeven's wrasse, green wrasse,eviota nigriventis, trimma tevegae, green mandarin, leopard wrasse, multibanded pipefish, ghost pipefish, antennata lionfish, razorfish, blue tangs, sailfin tangs, sepiacauda hogfish, grammica goby, brotulina fuscus, strombus, urchins, sand dollars, linckia starfish, bumblebee shrimp, blue velvet nudibranch.

$80 is already below market price for purple tang, in fact it should be costing $100+. Just compare the price in Malaysia and U.S.

Here's some links for you to come up with your own conclusions. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=845934 http://www.ultimatereef.net/forums/archive/index.php/t-497739.html http://www.nano-reef.com/topic/336987-gfo-phosguard-iron-aluminum-no-bueno/ (clam lovers take note) If aluminium based absorbers were that bad, german brands like FM & Triton will not be carrying these products at all. For the data released on aluminium leaching, I have no comments. The only way I would trust such information is based on a independent analysis by a laboratory doing comparisons. For all you know both products may be the same.

The hype about aluminium based phosphate removers leaching phosphate was due to a bad batch of seachem phosguard released in the 1990s. Such information is already outdated and should only be trusted for that period. Many successful german aquarist trust Ultraphos. Ultraphos is manufactured in such a way that it does not leach aluminium nor phosphates, and will change color from white to dark yellow when exhausted. Ultraphos removes phosphates and dissolved organics very fast, so it is important to follow the dosage instructions or you could clean your water too fast and have corals that will exhibit symptoms of light/nutrient shock. Ultraphos will also remove excess levels of iron which cause "unexplained" algae growth. The only things that Ultraphos will not do is fluidize as it is quite heavy nor will it disintegrate over time and enter your tank.

Depends on the fish some fishes can tolerate higher temperatures. If the Acrylic is thick enough or if your tank is in air-conditioned room the tank may not sweat at 20 degrees. I've chilled to 23 degrees in normal climate on 6mm glass and experienced no sweating. If you want to save power invest in a drop in coil chiller, these are more efficient. We chill around 1.5 tonnes to 12 degrees recently and electrical consumption went up by about $200. For smaller tank volumes I doubt the increase in bills will ever reach that high. Pinecones are not that hard to keep as long as they are kept by themselves or with peaceful fishes and temperatures in the low 20s. You can consider flashlight fishes too.
