Ends of the tank...

This end will hopefully fill in with more softies as I find ones I like. Im really liking this end so far. And gives you an idea of how wide the tank is....almost 3'



This end is my Tusks territory. Unfortunately my Hippo won't let him leave this area much anymore. The Hippo may have to go if he keeps this up. The tusk is too important to me to see always stressed in a corner. I have noticed he has lost a lot of color lately and feel it must be due to the bullying of the Hippo

You can see so much of my LR is so white still Much of it was 'cooked' before it went into this tank and has yet to really get 'dirty'. I don't know if its the ZEO or not but coraline is not growing too fast right now.





My Yellow Tang is FINALLY starting to gain some weight. You can see here he is getting there. Still a little skinny for my liking though.

Thanks.


Well its been three days of peace between the Tusk and Hippo. All of a sudden, the Hippo completely stopped chasing the tusk and lets him swim freely again. Not sure what brought on the weeks of anger towards the tusk but hopefully it will stay like this.

Oh no...what happened?

I will take some pics tomorrow for sure.

I will have to ask the original owner but I am pretty sure he is Zebrasoma desjardinii. He has a lot of spots.

Oh just the first battle to rid my tank of some flatworms, well A LOT of them, plus did 4 separate 5G water changes throughout the day after a Chemi-clean treatment couple days ago, so that I could bring my Skimmer back online.. Was a long day of husbandry...
