Lightsluvr's 340G Upgrade

It seems like Don the 10" Vlamingi Tang is smarter than the average fish... He figured out that the net in his (old) tank was trying to snag HIM... so now he ducks and covers whenever he sees it...
The donor will try again today and we'll see how it goes...

I looked into the drawer rails, but they were too wide to fit between the support "L" and the light frame...only about 1/4" clearance on each side.
Fortunately this is a lightweight system and easy to slide back and forth in the unlikely event that is necessary...

Thanks!
Thanks!
Thanks, Bob. It was my pleasure seeing you again...See you at CRASE 2009!

Don Corelone...
The "Don" arrived!
He was coaxed out of hiding by the offer of a whole table shrimp! He was acclimated to our water slowly - cup by cup for about 30 minutes:
He passed the obligatory cat inspection test:
And into the tank he went with a splash that was heard around the room!
At first he looked a little miffed, but asserted himself in the tank and explored his new digs...
Just how big is "the Don"? Here he is swimming in our 8 foot wide tank:
Yeah, he's pan-size!
He went through a sheet of Nori like it was a snack...(because it was).
We are looking forward to our fish friend. When he outgrows our tank, we will donate him to the Oklahoma Aquarium... http://www.okaquarium.org/

We already are...I love that he likes to cruise the front and upper third of the tank... We will take good care on him!

Holy Cow! That's one big fish! Think I can get one for my Biocube? 
The "Don" is making offers no one can refuse...
Actually, the DesJardins Sailfin came out to defend her cave, but turns out it was too small for the "Don" anyway. He slept between a rock and a hard place (right side of the tank) last night... I turned all lights off for several hours...as soon as I turned on the moonlights, he started swimming back and forth the length of the tank. His new home is 2 feet longer and a foot wider than his previous digs...
I will be increasing the food disbursal for a while until I figure out how much needs to be fed. I will be using SureGrip magnets to hold sheets of Nori to the side of the tank.
