Agreed, very nice!

I would have guessed scratching on the Naso too. But if you never see him scratch against rocks then it's odd that it's spreading? How long have you had him? Maybe it's some kind of fungal thing that will clear given enough time ... I don't know, sorry !

I had to drop a line giving you credit for your tank, it looks great. The wall panel is a grea t idea, I wish I had thought of it when installing my tank. I am suprised to see a parrot fish in there, with you having corals and all. How long has the parrot been in there? Has it torn up much?

Shweet... Love the panels! GREAT idea especially if you have a really long awkward room, I really could have used that in my last place!


What is the white with blue and black striped angel-looking fish? 7th pic down. I like it a lot. edit: Is it a bellus? Nice!!

Thanks a lot everyone! I really like the wall panel, it can also give me access in the back with no problem. Its not big, but could not get a fish room, so its the best way closest to a fish room. There is a QT tank/frag tank in the back and a reservoir of 90G for my water change. Everything else is under the tank.

I recently change my CA reactor to a GEO 818, working really good up to now, much easier to adjust than the Schuran i had.

I got the Naso tang a week ago, the most recent fish. All the other fishes are in the tank for at least 6 months.

TriggerMan: thats indeed a parrot fish, its a quoyi parrotfish. Its been known as the only parrot fish "reef safe". Up to now, he have not touch any kind of corals, grazing algea on the rocks. As efficient or maybe more than a rabbitfish IMO. He is also eating all kind of food: pellets, flake, frozen, salad, nori, etc...

Keri: thats a Bellus Angel. Had him for about an year. My favorite genicanthus angel.
