SRC Member davechee Posted October 21, 2011 Author SRC Member Share Posted October 21, 2011 hey dave, take the opportunity to start a reef tank, with fishes swimming around the sps and other hard corals. New challenge... mike Mike, I'm still trying to stand up and walk, and here you are asking me to bungee jump already! Okay, will have to consult with Dr Ang and your goodself and in due course. Have a good weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishyfish Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Remember that a full blown sps tank with gorgeous colours can only be realized if lightly stocked with reef safe fishes. You can't really have the best of both worlds. Choose wisely....

SRC Member davechee Posted November 2, 2011 Author SRC Member Share Posted November 2, 2011 Current state of the tank after the mass die off a few weeks back. Still in hypo (approx 1.01). Remaining fish appear to be doing well. Eating voraciously and no sign of ich, but will be keeping tank in hypo state until end of November just to be safe. Dosing bacteria regularly as well. Now thinking what fish I would like to add once it's safe to stock again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got quite a few big fish in my tank so I'm fast running out of space already. Immense discipline required from now on. Maybe one day your hand itchy you can come rescape my tank for me. Should have enough rocks to keep you busy for a while. Haha... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just out of curiousity and a silly question... why get such large size fishes? I mean you have a large tank but if you can get moderate size fishes ... your tank will not look so crowded? btw, your tank... scape already need to go for daily spa treatment for a fortnight....

Aesthetically, the large fishes, in my opinion, look better (especially where the tangs are concerned). I've compared my late AT with the smaller ones I've seen and in this respect, I think bigger is better. Practically, larger fishes are easier to spot and so I can tell more easily if a fish is missing or not well. It also follows that the corpses of large fishes easier to find than small ones.
