"Blue Tang SELECT Edition Frags" -- get the marketing right man, we're talking BIG dollars to have a FISH select your frags.

Those smiles are just a cover up! The little man will have his revenge of the toy cars in the sump! Just kidding, awesome that you get your young ones involved. I can't wait for the day my wife and I have our kid(s) and I will do the same. Happy Reefing and bless you and your family! Congrats on getting the frag tank up and running.

Yes they are Wayne! They also could be from where corals began to grow into each other and were fragged to prevent a war! :beer:

Thank you! It's a big tank and I try and make it fun for the whole family! You know my little man will remember how fun it is to throw stuff in the sump soon enough! :thumbdown

Thanks for the kind words! Your kids will love your tank!!!

Ooh purdy.

What's the story on that anemone? My original RBTA I got quite a few years ago, probably 2-3 dozen splits later I have this massive rock of anemones, occasionally with some wandering off... of this is a secondary tank. I'm scared to move them into the main tank just because they might start wandering all around the place, taking up premium coral spots, etc... have yours wandered at all?

I cheated on this picture... It's in my frag tank because he did wander!!!

DOH!

Every now and then I see a tank with a bubble tip that's swaying in the breeze, and I'm thinking hey maybe I can too... but I'd rather not get an aiptasia like plague of RBTAs in the tank.

They do not sway too much...
