A Regal in with LPS???? Are you nucking futs???!!! As an aside, I hope you gave it at least a FW dip before putting it in - Angels are bad for flukes.

You should add this link to your Tank Journal: Featured Tank Dec 2015 - Roskoreef

Congrats!!

Is it 3 gyres your running or is there anymore that we can't see in your pics? Have you tried placing them at different spots and are you running them at full throttle? I'm running 2 of the 150's and thinking on adding 2 more but those would be the 130's.
Good luck with the angel.

There is 2 150's on this side - 70% alternating flow, bottom every 2 mins, top every 5 mins



and a 150 on the bottom and 130 at the top, im trying them on angles to try and make the flow as random as possible - 130 100% alternating 2 mins, 150 100% slowest wave/pulse

Oooh, the regal! I love that fish too. Definitely a bit dicey in a reef though (like most medium-large angels actually). I've always found them difficult to keep. Many of them don't end up eating, or end up eating things you don't want them to eat . Not impossible but definitely challenging. Anyway, she looks like she'll be a gorgeous addition if she can kick that ich.

Like all fish in my tank, only the strong survive...

gsp is honestly one of my favourites, if only it wasnt so invasive..









Love this fish! Model citizen so far with the lps! Nips at lots on the rocks, probably small sponges, that will run out. Hopefully he can eat some pellets or frozen by then.
