Kien,

Your tank is truly spectacular and worthy of Tank of the Month honours every month. It blows any tank I've ever owned or set up right out of the water. I love your new kitchen too. Looks great. Amazing job and hopefully things don't come in THREES

Anthony

Ya, I just saw your new addition! Love the regals

I've had mine for 4 years now I think. In general I have found them to be a challenge. This isn't the first angel that I've ever tried to keep. I've found that they can be fickle eaters. And yes, like many medium (to large) angels they can tend to develop a taste for LPS and/or clams and/or SPS. Having said that, here's the history with mine..

I got my regal originally to put into a "FOWLR" that I once had many moons ago. That "FOWLR" happened to have some corals in it and she did nip on most of them when I first introduced her. She was in there with a bunch of other angels (Queen and King). Most of the corals that I put into my "FOWLR" I didn't really care about so I let them have at it. Interestingly enough over time they started to lose their interest in the corals and nipped on them less. They much preferred my homemade fish food mush that I make. Eventually I shut down that "FOWLR" and sold most of the fish in there save for my regal. The regal I put into my main 150g display. I kept an eye on her and sure enough, she didn't bother any corals, luckily. Just luck and maybe some conditioning from the previous tank that she was in, maybe.

She does enjoy eating zoa frags though. I can not keep any zoas in my tank. *sadface* Aside from that, I have acans, chalice, a clam, and all manner of LPS that she doesn't touch.

For good measure I do keep a special prayer in the prayer reactor for her. I'm not sure what I'd do if she started to decimate my coral collection in the 150g. That would be a tough decision.

Looks great Kiener!

Out of curiosity what made you choose the chimney over a shroud on your hoodfan? Kitchen looks sweet after the fix!
