AT love seaweed, they are hard to feed on pellets, u must pump it.

very very nice tank, think i can give up my hobby liao....

u must have spend a bomb liao :P

bro, dun say that. i always look up to you, especially since you manage to keep some of the more difficult and exotic tangs. :)

I spend quite a substantial amount on equipments but this is for long term basis, since they don't break down ( i.e. beckett, calcium reactor etc). Corals tank require a lot more effort than just a fowlr tank, and twice as much if you have both fowlr and coral tank. :cry2:

Last month electricity bill shoot up to $460, so i dun dare add any more equipments.

Stablio: juvenile tangs often don't show their true colours as compared when they are adults. i.e orange shoulder tang.

AT are not very rare, maybe once every few weeks there would be a shipment. Its ABT that i cant find yet. Bascially, after speaking to some lfs, they are willing to bring in black tang, gem tang, any tang u can find in the encyclopedia as long as you request for it.

I am also looking at rare tangs, rather than the common yellow, blue, purple tangs.

cheers!

p.s. fri evening sld be ok.

How come you're removing your PTs?

How much are you willing to sell them for? I have been looking around for PTs. PM me if you are still selling them. ;)

Oh yeah.. Are your YTs aggressive towards one another? I've got 1 YT in my tank and thinking of getting another one but worried about them fighting. :pinch:

i am planning to keep other tangs, so have to make space. .

Once i catch out my purple tangs, i will keep you posted ya? The two purple tangs feeds on everything.

I have 4 yellow tangs, all doing well. there will be occassional fights but nothing serious.

Tangs sld be kept in odd number if possible.

p.s. if your tank is 10 feet, it doesnt matter if u keep in odd or even numbers. :lol:

:D:D:D

At is quite a challenge to me but i am confident it will survive as it already feed on mysis/brine shrimps, ocean nutrition formula one flake food and seaweed.

Still cant bear to part with all my 4 yellow tangs, maybe when i decide to get a sohal or gem, i will remove the YT.

And btw, i think i am seriously overfeeding. . like 7 cubes of brine/mysis shrimps a day! :(

The frog will stay in the sump, no problem with that. sea urchin got pros n cons. They eat both nuisance algae and coraline algae.
