I'm sure you have, but have you ever seen that one tank on YouTube that's loaded with fish? Wait, here it is:

But you would trade any one of those for this :lol2:

 

[tbone28]

That's the owner of Deltec.

 

[paulthomas]

That's some list Terry. I didn't know you had that many tangs.

Hrm. I didn't know that. Is that tank doing well to this day. How many gallons is it?

That was in my last tank (240g) in our last home. I sold the setup before we sold the house.

 

[mpoletti]

A school of achilles would be sweet. BTW Terry, the 5 that are left are all eating as well

 

[paulthomas]

Ok, that was your 240.

My fault T, I meant the owner of Deltec's tank. How many gallons, is it doing well, etc.?

 

[tbone28]

Mark - I"m just kidding. I'd need Bart's tank to pull of something like that. I'm sure Exotic will have some Achilles when I'm up there this summer.

Paul - That Deltec tank is 1000+ gallons. I bet he runs a BK skimmer :lol2:

That'd be funny.

David Saxby is my new Idol... his tank is just silly huge!!!
Marko9, I love what you have done thus far. Did you ever get your Calc reactor dialed in? If so, what are your settings.

 

[kdblove_99]

Thats kinda funny you mention getting a school of Achilles. when Jim and I were at Exotic, Jim was all look at how those 3 are just schooling together. I said you gotta get all 3.

I'ver had all those before just not at the same time. I still ike the Male Blonde naso the best.

I also had a Red Sea sailfin.

My tank now is pretty full but i still want a Chevron tang for it and that will probably close the deal

 

[tbone28]

My last naso was a regular one. I still want a male blonde naso for my current tank, a juvi chevron, and (if I can find ones that eat) an achilles and clown tang.

 

[cbui2]

im will be upgrading soon

 

[kdblove_99]

Oh yeah. When i had my 180 i tried a clown tang. Got 2 on diffrent occasions and they both died. pretty fast also. Know others that have had about the same luck!


Exotic has a big clown tang and 5 achilles. so what are you doing next weekend

Thank you for stopping in. David Saxby's tank is way too cool.

My CArx is stable right at 9 for now. I do not know what my settings are as I am not using a PH monitor. I need to get a measuring cup and I would really like to get a meter that would measure my out put; anyone have any ideas where I might find one. I need one that has a 1/4' fitting.

I must be a masochist seeing how I'm drawn toward fish that are hard to keep alive

 

[eagleONE]

wow.... mark you've been pretty busy. That Achilles looks amazing. I'm glad to hear it's eating. And congrats on the coral. You and Emma must be really proud.

Nice list tbone. Dusseimeri is one of my favorites. That is one fish I will definitely have once I have my 600g tank, my own place... and not to forget, get out of dental school... Dream fish and dream tank. haha ooooooh YEAH!

Aren't clown tangs big ol' bullies?

 

[tbone28]

yeah, as are sohals, but you get lucky once in a while. I've had 3 Sohals in my life. Only my current one is a bully. The other 2 were mellow yellow.
