I think I'll stick with wrasses for now. Brad and Rich says I'm only allow to have 25 corals ( mind you, if people want to toss fragments in to the tank that should be ok so long as its not of my doing ) so now I have all this open space there should be enough room for a few more wrasses. getting a show tang just means I will someday have to upgrade to give the fish more room to swim.

One tang.. Gem tang

As for wrasse?? sky is the limit. just leopard along, there is red, black, chaoti, potter, African blue star and etc..

And fairy wrasse on the other hand?? Don't even get me started.

Well Wayne.
I read through the your whole build thread. I had no idea you had your ehiem 1262 for sooo looong.. lol.
It's in now. So all is well.

You had a lot of really really nice coral in there. I am guessing you will have more around 50 frags in your tank within the next 4 months.

Anyone else want to guess.?

And again. The new layout looks great. Fish are going to have a lot more room to play. Well at least for the next year until those corals take over.

I need to come by and take another look.
See you

I think we should start a poll for how many frags Wayne will add over the next 12 months.

1-25
25-50
50-75
75+

Anyone know a betting site we can link to?

New scape looks like a nice canvas to start from buddy

Just a FYI. I'm going to do monthly checks and remove anything over 25 pieces. Wayne will thank me in a year.

Dammit why didn't I think of that. I could have stocked my own frag tank with that idea...
