435 gallon in wall see through easy sps

I am just glad no fish died in the display since the sfvr meeting
And I even with the blue tang and powder blue are covered with ick now it's completely gone
Also no angels means I can have acans and zoos now

More easy inverts

WOW! Love this tank and thread Lawrence. My wife also requires me to be frugal and I think it's such a contradiction, but somehow I make it work too. Haven't finished the whole thread, but loving every aspect including YouTube videos! I'll be tagging along from here on out!

Thanks
I was sidetrack with large Angels total disaster and very expensive.
Now that I am very broke because of my new exotic birds collection I am back as easy mixed reef as thread was intended.
Cheap fish, cheap corals and cheap owner.Lol

your tank looks great!!!!!! I hope mone looks that good...

 

[larryfl1]

question... are you running low nutrient and if so what method?

beatiful photos...

 

[bullitr]

Thank you very much dor the kind words
I haven't test my water nor change my water in a long time to tell you if the nutrient is high or low but I feed 3- 5 times a day since I have a lot of fish now. The softies are not growing as much as my sps though.The tank is a easy maintanance I clean the glass once a week
And I don't have a lot of sps like I used to.

lawrence just want to ask if its okay with you if how much are you feeding your fishes per day? thank you...

 

[bullitr]

I feed them at least 3 times a day
That's why my acropora is not as bright.

if i may ask again lawrence whats your feeding regiment per meal? sorry to ask because some of my tangs have developed an appetite of munching acans.. and i just realized that im underfeeding them. i only feed my tank once a day with one cube of mysis shrimp. my fault. i forgot that my tangs are getting bigger... thanks again lawrence.

 

[cediss]

If you feed more the algae will grow more and the tangs will also be less hungry!

Your tank looks to be doing great!!
Have you noticed any type of agression between the two hippo's, I only ask because I've tried the 3 hippos once and it was fine for a year or so but as they grew, one became the more agreesive and it was time to find homes for the other two.
