Nice... how about adding a Hawkfish? They are full of characters and can help control pests (to a certain extent) :lol:

Maybe add 7 or 9 Blue Eye Anthias :yeah::yeah::yeah:

Wah... Anthias I like but they are very hard to keep cos always dun want to feed.

Hawkfish not too reef safe right? Heard they attack shrimps/

Blue Eye Anthias are easy to keep and they are usually quite easily fed :)

As for Hawkfish... I think they only attack much smaller shrimps... so far my 2 Hawks (Flame & Falco) have not assasinate any of my shrimps :lol::lol::lol: In fact, after adding the Falco... I don't hear clicking sound anymore :D

Sounds good. Is the long nosed or ths short nosed hawkfish a better choice in terms of being reef safe?

The LongNose looks more intimidating to me... I will suggest you go for ShortNose :lol::lol::lol: Flame is very nice... a bright red fish that will dot around in your tank :lol:

Thanks for the kind words. :bow::bow::bow:

YT from Iwarna... Bought it in a very good condition so no regrets there.

Sailfin has been with me since the start of the tank. A young brudder here gave up and sold me. Then i was only slightly larger than 50 cents.
