My 6x2x1.8 little ocean in front of the ocean

[PowderTang]

This new tank will be predominantly Leather cum inverts tank 

 

90% leather 

rest some LPS and zoas

[PowderTang]

Decided to change my right scape rocks into a tall Aquaroche rock so I can put more corals 

 

also add in :

right side big blue Carpet Anemone 

left size big purple carpet anemone + luminous green carpet anemone 

 

I have a total of 5 carpets in my tank already 

 

[Patrick]

[PowderTang]

Some of my favorite tangs:

Gem tang

Spotted face tang

ATs

[PowderTang]

Some of my fav Zoas...

[MarCal]

Wow! So many Tangs. How do u introduce them to the tank? How are you able to keep the peace n the ich away? 

[PowderTang]

I run UV 

usually I will buy a few pieces and release at one go

 

for eg. if I wanna buy purple tang + gem tang , I will buy a few purple tangs+ gem tang cos currently I already have a few yellow tangs and convict tang ( same face shape)

so I will release these new tangs at one go so that the older fishes would not know who to bully 

[purplelight]

How Long do you run your UV?

And feed them Nori everyday and feed pellets many times a day

 

to keep them busy from fighting 

 

[PowderTang]

I run them 24/7

and running For close to 2 months already ... cos that time my tank has ick 

 

And practically every new fish that goes in will get ick

 

so I have been running 2 UVs  and refrain from buying fishes for 2 months until recently , just added some fishes to test again

[purplelight]

Thanks for the advise do advise on your new fishes well being

Bro, how u control bio load effectively?

[PowderTang]

For phosphates control, I use RowaPhos

for nitrates , use NoPox

also add a bag of Zeolites

 

and used to do weekly major water changes but now getting lazier 

 

that’s why only keeping softies tank which is non demanding 

[PowderTang]

very therapeutic to see the tank at a corner of the house

full tank shot

[PowderTang]

just added this oddball fish to test 

 

 

when the lights are dimming ... luminous face

[Indeco]
