Yeah, I soooo much prefer a mix reef with mainly LPS than a pure sps tank. More movement, etc.

The little puff puff has been moved into my seahorse/frag tank & he's slowly learning to eat. I have to rehydrate freezedried krill, then peel of the shell, then shred into tiny morsels & stick it onto a bamboo skewer. It'll come right out & inhale the morsels, but I don't think their teeth plates are developed yet at that small size because it can't chew properly.

Porcupine puffers, at least Irene's two, tend to be very nocturnal in behaviour. Luckily we don't sleep that early ourselves.

Sebae again,

there are now 24 fish in the 210g. Irene wanted a school of yellow tangs so I got her a school of YTs (6). What the pregnant wife wants, she gets (within reason).

There are also 2 Powder blues (1 big, 1 small), an Achilles, 2 Regal Blues & a Coral Rabbitfish. the rest are small fish: 1 Potter's angel, 1 African Flameback angel, 1 Cherub angel, Cleaner wrasse, Yellow canary wrasse, Bluesided Fairy wrasse, 2 Anthias (squarespot females)...

Anthony

Marie,

Dean had to take off for Fort McMoney a couple hours after getting a call from his work so no time to pick up the corals. We'll make another arrangement.

great pics anthony. but no matter how great the pics turn out they still dont do the tank justice. this tank is INSANE to see in person. i think ive overstayed my welcome at Anthony's place more than once just staring at his tank saying, "ooooh...whats that? oooh...that looks insane!"

great shots though. i just showed my girlfriend and she said, "whoa...he's added a lot more corals than when i saw it!"

Great looking set up! Thanks for being brave and posting how many fish you have. I feel better about the 26 fish I have in my 230g.
