WOW!!, just finished reading this thread. This tank has got to be the coolest I have seen on Reef Central! How are the tangs doing?
WOW indeed, that's a lot of reading! Appreciate the nice feedback. Unfortunately the powder blue had to be removed, the other three are getting along fine and swimming about. Disappointing to say the least, I really love PB tangs.

I think a few convict tangs would look pretty good in there
*edit*
Doh sorry didnt see you had added a few - I found a gold eye and a powder brown co-existed peacefully , and at the moment I have full grown Yellow and Gold eye living in (not far from perfect) harmony along with a Majestic angel in a 112g.
Its been a year and no real trouble so who knows. I think like yourself my aquascaping has a lot to do with the peaceful coexistance - I have the tank set up as a peninsula with rock down the centre like a large outcrop - so fish can swim either side without being visible to the other. Also a lot of large hiding spaces under the rockwork.
I do unfortunately think the Powder Blue and Achilles may be a little too close for comfort - Id be tempted to scale back to just the Achilles from the pair(and get yourself an angel).
The PB and the gold rim were more the issue than the achilles actually. Curiously the three still in the DT are getting along just fine.
I *think* I'm done with the stocking at the moment, but you never know down the road. I've never had this much water volume and absurd skimming ability so my options are a little open I guess.

Awesome tank! Congrats on having one of the most unique set-ups around!
Appreciate that nice comment. I think it is certainly unique but I will set that there are many much more impressive set ups on RC. It is however turning out a lot like what I had hoped so I'm pleased

Absolutely amazing tank! I love it! The only thing that would make it better (too me, we all have our own tastes...) would be a school of little fishes zipping about in a group. [blue chromis?] I always think that makes a reef seem so natural... But again, that is just me, and your tank is divine just as it is!
If I didn't hate chromis so much I would probably do that. I do have a large number of little guys in pairs because like you there is something about a number of smaller fish zipping around that I very much like. Between all the wrasse's, gobie's and tangs with a CBB thrown into the mix, I'm really liking the mix.
I'm working on a new site to chronicle the tank, but have trips back to back for the next three weeks so it will be a while but kind of looking forward to that too so I can have a camera streaming 24/7 and the like.
Reminds me, I should order the net module for the RKE soon!
