Haven't really been bothered to test it, to be honest. I'm working on running this cycle based on a method by Eric Bourneman (thread is HERE on RC if anyone wants to read about what I'm doing) Might add some snails/crabs in about a month from now. Then the system will sit again for prolly 2 months before the first coral goes in, when that time comes, I will start adding some good photosynthetic corals. The tank won't see any fish for minimum 6 months.

I became really intrigued with this write up by Eric, so much soo, that I want to see what happens with the absence of predators in the tank.

I know its awhile before I start stocking the tank, but I think I have put together my stocking list, but would like some advise on some possible changes. (especially regarding the tangs)

Stocking list in order of addition (First to Last)

- Red Lip Blenny
- 6 Line Wrasse
- Gold Stripe Maroon Clown
- Flame Angel
- Kole Yellow Eye Tang (my maybe tang)
- Yellow Tang
- White Cheek Powder Brown Tang

Personally, I would not add that many tangs. 3 in a tank that size is too many. I would stick with one as there will be too much aggression. I have 3 in my 150g and there is a ton of aggression.

Very interesting article. Something to think about for sure, I'm just not sure I have the patience that would take.
