Mark's 180 Starfire upgrade

I figured, but I'm anxious to see the difference and we couldn't fire them up yesterday. I really need to get a Hanna Phosphate meter one of these days. I think I need to sell a couple of these Sequence pumps and get myself one, as well as a pretty pair of fishies!:D
 
I can't really say how much brighter, but there is definitely more light. I think that the ballasts will stay up on top until I fab a stand for next to the tank. I am glad I was able to get the dart switched out with the snapper as well.

Thanks again for your help.
 
Happy to help. Plus, how often do you get to see any tang of that size in person, not to mention a black and/or black/scopas mix.
 
Its funny, because now that he is in the reef, he is pitch black. That is one problem of pictures, it is hard to represent something sometimes. He was very stressed yesterday and now that he is more comforable and eating, he looks really sweet. Either way, as Jim would say "Dude, thats a baller fish" :D

as always mark ,you find the nice ones,looking great as always,kkep up the good work,if you get all the exotic fish,none of us will have to,we can just drewll over your pict,lol,mikid:rollface:
 
Thanks Mike. I pm'd you back on the zoas. Don't worry, I will take care of you ;)

About th efish, I have a list of about 30 species. Some I do not think I will ever find. An extra small black tang was one of those fish that I did not think I was going to find. I always see them 5" or bigger.

I am pretty happy with him. Even though the bigger fish do not let him eat from the nori clip, he does eat flake, pellets and my meaty foods as well :)

Is it still eating now that its a bit more established in your tank?

Like a champ. He started making his way to the other side of the tank yesterday :D
 
Yep. He is still hanging out in the rocks behind the LITS and that crazy blue acro I have. He has good taste
 
One thing about when your thread splits, it closes the previous part. There is no way to quote pictures or information in past conversations. Oh well, It just looks like I will have to take a new bunch of new pictures in the upcoming weeks. Split away :lol:
 
Mark, my baby blonde naso was very shy to eat off the clip when I first introduced him. Just give your black tang some time. He'll warm up. My baby naso rips that nori with the best of em now :D

I agree with placing a 2nd nori clip
 
With the amount of hebivores I have, I split a full sheet of nori between two clips. They are both gone within minutes.
