Well if all the fish are doing well, I suppose that their is nothing wrong with a high bioload.

Funny, that looks just like the Altanta Aquarium.

It was worth the price of admission to see all of that.

I was trying to take some pictures a few minutes ago ... but both of my batteries died, and i have no more AA's for the battery clip.
I guess i must've left my chargers in the office.

 

[lisaFL]

lol ... nice picture scott!

SCR,

yes - if i remember correctly .. it is the Georgia Aquarium ... i think i got thatr picture off their website a few months gao ... but i could be wrong.

 

[lisaFL]

i took these practice shots before the batteries died ...
Glass is NOT clean ... and there is ALOT of stuff floating around in the water collumn ... as well as microbubbles.

 

[keinreis]

wait till those 13 tangs start growing... lol

He and I are friends and I made my avitar to harrass him a long time ago for kicks, not that I am the true tang police.

 

[Icefire]

keinreis yeah but for a few months it's good.

 

[lisaFL]

back down to 12 Tangs ... the little regal didn't seem to have survived the night.

 

[boxfishpooalot]

The sandbed will fill up, then he will use rowa phos to counteract his dying corals. Then the fish will start getting disease and he will ask why? And how come? The fish will grow to 6" each, especially the regals. Its way overstocked. He should have a tank full of corals to conteract that amount of livestocks pollution. And vaccume the gravel.

Oh my.

It all boils down to experience, skill and equipment. Some folks could probably get away with anything. But to be sure Tangs are one of the few which qualify for the "pooping machine" title.
