I did a double read when I saw string. Then I was like yeah, was actually going to do that with a rock and Xenia :) You took it to the next level.

I'm assuming something stronger than string though like deep sea fishing line / element? Any chance of a image of the part of the tank that has it? Mounting, height, etc?
 
Everything looks great Minh. I recently took all my BTnems out of my main DTs and set up a dedicated for just nems and clowns. I got tired of them moving and killing stuff. My wife loves the nems though so that means a nem tank for her. lolz .

I plan on getting a red or blue carpet once I set up a bigger tank for them.
Any advice on what to look for or be weary of when looking for one to purchase?
 
Carpets are fish eaters. Certain species of fish are better at avoid been eaten than others. Just know that this can happen and don't keep any fish that you just don't ever want to loose with carpets.

What about clowns? They're the only fish I plan on keeping in the tank. What about a red or blue Haddoni ?
 
I noticed you have several types of nems in one tank. Don't they sting each other? Was wanting to add a different type to mine but everything I read says not to mix them?

Haddoni have been know to eat clown but only when the first drop into the tank and drove straight to the anemone and got eaten, or reefer force clown fish into a Haddoni with nets and the like. I have never heard of Haddoni eaten any clown fish that have been with the anemone and have noproblem.

The Host anemones that I have in the tank do not sting each other that I can see.
 
Amazing tank! Thank you for sharing. I'd kill for a recordea mushroom isle. I can never seem to find them at the LFS. Great pictures!
 
I got a nice picture of my Chevron today so I though I post it. This fish is very fiddicult to capture. This is a blemish picture, did not show the entire fish, but it is the best I got. I love this fish. They look better in real life in my tank. Absolutely stunning fish in a supple sort of look.

Chevron tangs are super nice, like you said it needs to be seen in person to really appreciate the fish
 
It was about 28 inches lat time I semi-measured it. That was 8 months or so ago. Grew some since then possible up to near 30 inches
 
Beautiful thread:) What are you using for lights, any protein skimmer or refugium???
 
I am using 8 Radions, G2 Pro and G3 Pro, plus 10 spot lights, Home Depo 100 W equivalent 5500K household LED, to various areas and animals. The anemones get really high light.
My sump is a 75 gal plastic trough and I use one of the Royal Exclusive larger skimmer, forgot which model. I also have a 40 gal breeder that I using as a frag tank and refugium
I use a Geo Kalk reactor modified to use a magnetic plate with magnet bar to stir the kalk (I also added a very thin glass plate in the inside bottom of the Kalk reactor so the the magnet bar won't wear a hole on the acrylic), and a Geo 6X24 Ca reactor that I modified so it is highly efficient. Both feed by dedicated lab grade pumps.
