    Powder blue and flying Zoos...

    in FOWLR (Fish-only with Live-rock)

    Posted

    Recently my powder blue tang had aquired this nasty habit... Ripping apart my zoos colony. <_<

    Polyps and pieces of polyps is flying ard my tank man. And the fish is even strong enuf to topple a few of the larger colonies i place on the rocks.

    I tot Zoos are like poisonous?! How come the PBT seemed to like chewing at it so much? Anyone have similar problem?

    Heard of tangs attacking pratas and other LPS.. but its kinda weird that mine left them alone and home in on those darn zoos. :lol:

    how to school PBT?!?

    I believe that they do have a chance of schooling...

    -Provided that u provide them with a huge tank.

    A 6X2 i believe is still not enuff,PBT are rather big schooling fishes. Guess you'll need at least a 6X4? To effectively imitate the openess of their natural environment enuff to make them school.

    -3-5 fishes aint gonna cut it.... I stand with muah chee. At least 10 fishes and above.

    They school in nature more for safety reasons actually. More pairs of eyes to look out from predators from all round. Since they are always busy on the look out for danger, their territorial nature in supressed.

    Read/seen it somewhere but forgotten. It does make sense. Sacrificing Individual territories for survival. :lol:

    The above batfish can a pain in the A** to start feeding.

    Try mussels or clams in half shells, cross yur fingers and prey they work.

    If not have u tried live foods? Seldom does newly aquired fishes take to pellets la. Unless you are damn lucky... ;)

    Try to read up on wat they feed in nature helps. Good luck bro.

    Do you look down when you pee?

    Ok. advice noted and will removed the LR :unsure:

    Woah bro, Yur tank too many sun corals liao... not nice la... i help u take away some... :ph34r::fear:

    :P

    I agree to remove the live rocks. What i did for my QT is that i puta few sections of 4" PVC pipes into it. For the fishes la.

    Let they hide in it. They wont feel that stress and tends to recover faster. From my observation. :lol:

    Brown Tang scared of me!

    read somewhere that having not-so-shy fishes like chromis will help your shy fishes to come out in the open. chromis normally will swim around in the open. perhaps you can try this the next time round...  B)

    ;) Yap thats true. My dispars used to hide like crazy in my QT.

    But when introduced to the main tank where theres a grp of chromis, they just shoal together out in the open.

    Give yur tang some time la. Good that its at least eating something. :)
