Thanks for all the compliments folks,

Aqua there is quite a bit of controversy over the use of DSB/ Mangroves but after setting them up I will never run a tank with out them. Even if there is no benefit they look amazing and create a great structural foundation for my pistol shrimp/ goby pair.

That being said, DSB's can give you some trouble as I just experienced (When they are mixed up they release some pretty nasty stuff into the water). Due to that I started running the NP bio pellets as a second source of N/P reduction and so far so good.

For the first little while the tangs were on edge, but once everyone learned there place on the pecking order things were good to go. I have two very diligent cleaner shrimps and have not had any Ich or parasite problems to date. I tend to power feed, lots of frozen (Brine Shrimp, Mysis, Cyclo, Home made stuff), Nori and Form 1/2 pellets 4-8 times per day.
