Very nice and congrats!!!
I see you also have a swallow tail angel. Does she have any faint vertical bars showing?
Lovely tank set up.
Cheers

thanks!

I really like my swallow tail angel :)
and I did not saw verticle lines, I think it's a female... the males is the one that has lines... I had one in the previous 265g tank but he comit suicide... a few days after introducing him in the tank it was so scare that it swim in a hole too fast and a LR feld on him... poor fishy :sad:

Yes, yours is a female. Mine looks like yours but it might be changing into a male (?possible?) because I can see shadows of vertical lines. Then again it might be stress/adjustment related because it is a new aquisition - yesterday!:lol:

yes could be stess related... :wink:
I have mine for about 4 years now.. dont remember seing her stress :lol:

the new fish!

We are really happy with the new tang!
what a grerat fish! calm and curious :)

Great picture of a great fish! I find that as they get more relaxed in their new home they also colour up a bit. The blue rims on the fins on mine have gotten more prominent now that I've had mine for a few months.

thanks!
boy do it eats!! I give nori algea and it devores all of it in a few minutes... and it eats on the back glass algea too... a little pig!

we are thinking of changing the skimmer ...
the bioload is quite large and Lieutenant tang eats like a pig lol
currently we have an octopus downdraft (we add a becket injector) but it's not strong enough ...
The orp was 330-350 and now it's more 300-310 since the new tang is in...


Just keep in mind that we want to pay more than 400$ ... therefore no bubbleking or 1000$ skimmers are out...
ratings should be 300/350g (the set up is 200g heavy load)
preferably in sump ...
the foot print maximum is 7.1"x10"

you have any sugestions?

Look into the Bubble Magus line of skimmers. Reasonably priced and perform well. The cone skimmers have a small footprint as well.
