yeah you know they are getting big when they make a substantial food bill all by themself, he eats about 3 full sheets of nori and 3-4oz of mysis every day

[props]

kool
mine was eating 3 cubes of brine/mysis ev'ryday
=o)

[UnderWorldAquatics]

to put that in perspective, most cube pack foods contain about 3.5oz in the whole pack, thats what he eats evey day

Migh-tee-fine lookin' fish though. :cool: If that's the cost to keep him happy then there ya go. :mrgreen:

Wow those look very close to my old Lopezi tang.

Are these rare? Never seen one before :puppydog:

[UnderWorldAquatics]

they used to be very hard to get, but they are alot more common now, still not very common though because they require a very large tank as they grow to 24", price is alot lower now as well.....

Beautiful fish there Kyle!

I kinda don't like seeing images like these as they make me wanna start a FOWLR setup to boot :mrgreen:

[UnderWorldAquatics]

Do you say that because of the cost of building a reef tank large enough to house a vlamingii??? I keep them in reefs all the time...

[sumpfinfishe]

Hi Kyle,
No, cost is not a factor at all but space sure is :exclaim:

I have been in a basement suite for the past 7 years now and that is the only reason why I have just one little 27gl reef :frown:

When I my own pad, trust me-every room will have a different tank with a different theme :biggrin:

[UnderWorldAquatics]

ah, when you said FOWLR, I thought you were thinking you would have to setup a FOWLR instead of a reef, to house a vlamingii....
