I agree with Doug, it's not exactly an ideal set up for fish to thrive in and I feel bad for the fish having a shrimp ball in front of them to pick at but it looks like they can't really eat it. Must be frustrating to have food right in front of you that you want to eat but can't because it's contained in a mesh screen. Have to say it seems rather cruel

what....lol
how is thatany better than putting in a tank for the soke purpose of capitalizing on your own interest and enjoyment?

Hey, I would be happy to post a photo.
I live downtown Vancouver and if there is a 'photo guy or girl' who can take a picture I would be happy to meet up.
The tank is composed of florescent corals lit by LED lighting.
PM me if there is anyone willing to do this. I would appreciate it.
I was away diving in a remote area of Norther Sumatra, Indonesia so missed this post.
Why did the Mod interject?

Seriously........cmon astro turf falls apart under the best conditions, let alone in a tank full of saltwater....my tangs got put in a tank with their needs in mind and I do my best to provide them with with everything I can.....this tank is a circus side show put together for no other reason than to sell something.....perhaps you should check out a LFS here in Calgary....you would probably like the 14g bio-cube they have with the regal and yellow tangs in it....
