DSPS tank from Thailand (1000 gallon+)

[Moser]

Congratulations! Now get them to eat OSI Spirulina flakes, in my experience a very important food item to keep tangs healthy. Hopefully they will live together peacefully like mine :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Tanu,

Any issues with to in a large tank. I was under the impression that they can become very agressive. Any tips?.

Thanks
Mo

You think you can take more pics of the softie tank? (I'm trying to copy it)
Great work!

 

[chingchai]

are you getting 2 wow easy 5 k!
also how many achilles do you have now on your QT

I don't have any Achilles in QT.
I got two in the sump but one died by accident.
So I already put the rest into the main tank.

Hope that I can find the other four which must be bigger size.

Pairing them up works, in my experience the same as with yellow tangs.

I have my current to gem tangs about 5 and 2 years now, in the past I've had one which outgrew my tank. I honestly can't call them agressive, maybe this has to do with my selection of fish; the only other 'larger' fish are a pair of yellow tangs (which I have for about 12 and 9 years) and two regal angels (about 8 and 5 years). All other fish are significantly smaller (talk basslets, cardinals, wrasses, clownfish).

In a large tank with enough possibilities for the fish to hide from each other and enough decoration which prevents the fish from seeing each other continually, I honestly don't expect more problems than with yellow tangs.

But, of course, my experience is only based on a few specimens. In Germany a famous aquarist Ellen Thaler, who is also ethologist, has kept these fish in pairs. As far as I know, Chingchai is the third person to join the club.

Chingchai: welcome :lolspin:

Hi Chaingchai, I will confirm with my wife when and where exatly we going to be in Bangkok. We going to be 5 days staying in Bangkok so you can tell me the best suitable time to see your tank.
