Even the so call most "reef safe" bellus angel also didn't spare my prata which was previously in my tank before converting to fowlr... But a Koran should be easy to trap in my opinion as they are not shy and ract to fast very readily. U need beta boxes? i have quite a few to spare. Sorry, I meant they react very fast and readily to food Quote 4x1.5x2.3 home tank 6x2x2.3 office tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thanks to Bro Underwater too for the advice. This fellow is just abt 1.5 inch and is elusive and hides all the times. Hardly comes out for feeding. But when he does comes out, his tummy is all round like a puffy fish My lobo is now abt 20% left. Lucky for now he has yet to set eyes on other corals.

SRC Member piero Posted August 4, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted August 4, 2008 Nice fishes. Do you need to provide hiding places for all your fishes? Thinking of having a fOWLR too cos no time to take good care of a mixed reef tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo77 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Bro, think it is good to provide hiding places. I am keeping mixed but with lots of rock with "cave"....when i turn off the lights...you can see the fishes will go back to their usual hiding place to rest. It is good to keep tamed fishes from being whacked by agreesive fishes(speed plays a part). Anyway, i think for FOWLR setup, good to have a nice rock scape which allow the fishes to swim ard....it is to appreciate how the fishes swim and play ard......just my personal experience and thinking.... heard you are also in cycling(hope i remember correctly). If yes, are you in road or mountain biking? Me in mountain biking. Hehe. Nice fishes. Do you need to provide hiding places for all your fishes? Thinking of having a fOWLR too cos no time to take good care of a mixed reef tank.

SRC Member uLtRaMaN Posted August 13, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted August 13, 2008 As promised, my before n after re-scaping pics......... 1st pic before re-scape. Personally find the rocks were too close and cramp and not much space and openings for larger fishes to swim comfortably. 2nd pic after re-scaped. more open up and fishes swim much more comfortably, looks more spacious as well. So overall still very pleased although siong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
