What don't you like about your mystery? I have both a mystery and a male flame in my 90 gallon with no problems. The mystery does chase the flame once and awhile but nothing bad. I have been considering starting my own harem since the females are so cheap.

He wants 3 verse the one he has. Mystery don't pair well so... the thinking is the you need to remove the established fish and replace him with 3 new one in hopes that the will co-exist.

David if you ever come up to see my tank, Scott's tank is definitly worth see too ;) .

With those parameters, it looks like you are ready for some corals :p

Soon... I would like to PO4's a little lower. I might try a few and see how they do. No need to rush things. Plus the corals I have left arn't doing so well. The add stress might be enough to do them in. I'm sure you'll be get a PM soon :D.

Brian how are the fish doing? Did you end up reaquascaping?

The Flames are doing great. I'll be adding them in once they are QT'ed. I have 5 more fish coming Wed. I did lose one of my Multcolors :(.

What Hanna meter(s) do you own?

I have one and are club has 2.
 
It was a busy weekend. I was able to get the Apex finished and web access work thanks to my buddy Scott H. If I could figure out how to take screen shots, I'll post some pic of the web controls. Anyone?

I also finished up my fish screens to prepare for my wrasses. I'm not a big fan of mesh tops so I used black eggcreate on the back on over the overflow. Had both in the past and like the eggcreate better.

Screen shot = "ctrl"+"prt scr" (or print screen). That will copy your screen, then paste it in an program like paint and save as a .jpg.
 
ATT: Do not adjust your screen. What you are seeing are actual brown corals...... but they are corals :D .

Like I said before it was a busy weekend. I put what I have left of my corals into the tank. Alot of rebuilding from what I had before the move but these thing happen. My PO4's drop from .18 ppm to .02 ppm in week! Prodibio is pretty awesome stuff!

Now for a brown out :p.

Thanks Dan. I'll be add a few here and there, but for now I'm working more on the fish list. Going from a 90 gal to 270 gal there are so many fish that I couldn't have and now can.
 
Lets get some new pics! Show off that new group of beauties you got yesterday! I would like to see them not in the acclimation container.
