Vid looks pretty nice.

It appears you have introduced aptasia to your display tank on a plug at 1:26. Are you not quarantining your corals? If not you are courting disaster. Best take care of that ASAP!

Very nice tank. The powder blue and the achilles tang are not beating each other up? I never would have thought they'd be compatible in this size tank. When do you plan on adding the Naso and the Foxface?

I have an Achilles and Naso in a 180, originally I was planning on adding the Naso when I had a Chevron as well but he ended up dying from an accident so I just have the 2 tangs and gave up on the idea of pushing it to 3 but now you have me thinking about it again. When I first added the Naso who was about 2-2.5" bigger then my Achilles he beat him up pretty good but the Naso who is very fat and healthy just took it and only sliced him up a bit when it got really annoying and they are now fine together.

No Fighting. They were QT'ed together and I've had no agression since that point, even after adding them to the DT.

I'll add the Naso and Foxface in a few weeks when they are done with treatment.

Rocks are coloring up well. Tank is looking very good. I lost count of the mexican turbo snails but love the scape.

[dwebster86]

Blonde Naso Tang and Magnificent Foxface join the DT! Been in there for over 24 hours now. Excuse the Hair Algae, battling that now, yay Zeovit.

Eh I got enough stuff in there now working on it all. I'm going to leave it alone for right now. This is apart of the Zeovit cycle. My skimmer is going nuts with it. So should be okay.

Got new fish in today. Purple Tang, Red Manderian. My Bali Picasso and Onyx Picasso Clownfish pair.
