Harlequin Tusk good choice, bright up my tank with it's orange colour & peaceful fish. Australia type hardly have, got my from JJ katong. Blue face Angel will eat coral -mushroom is all time favorite, so beware.

happy fishing

how much did u pay for ur harley? I live @ Jakarta and its quite pricey here.. It would cost me around 4 blue notes SGD..

About the Blue face, is it really going to munch mushies? I had 1 Asfur and it's doing ok..

Very nice clean set-up. love the scaping too ... while many reef tank are awesome, FOWLR can be great if it is well-maintained like urs

Thx guys,

Nice tank, how is your asfur treating your lineatus? How big are they? Definitely get a male flame wrasse if you can, beautiful fish!

[juuniz]

my asfur only chase purple tang sometimes, oh i got 1 french juvenile being whacked by asfur before and currently i put my french in my QT.. he grew like monster there.. 5-6 cm when 1st time i bought, and now he surely exceed 8cm (in 3 months)

im thinking to catch and put asfur in sump for few weeks.. to let my french going inside main tank..

Lineatus is such a good citizens, ignore everyone except sometimes he chased my flameback during feeding time..

Hopefully i can get a good specimen of Harlequin Tusk

For size, Asfur is around 5" and my french around 3.5", lineatus 4"

Happy Reefing

[juuniz]

casualty since i set this tank..

1 flagfin juvenile..(died for unknown reason, fat and healthy)

Fish that i sold to other reefers

Sohal Tang (Big bully and harrass every new tankmate)

6 green chromis (Used for cycling purpose, throw it away to other reefer)

Latest Addition..

[jervismun]

Nice exquisite new additions... do update us on the AT... and whether any sign of aggression between your AT and your Blackie

[juuniz]

achilles eats nori and mysis.. blackie already took pellets..

@ 1st achilles show some aggresion towards blackie, after one night, nothing..

[Bubber]
