Getting really close to adding my favourite fish to the SPS set up. Over the last month I have been removing the auditioning SPS off the sand bed and building a Chalice collection. I have seen the Emperor Angel in many European SPS systems and followed a few links on RC about the hobbyist experience with it.

You are a brave man.....actually I would do it if I didnt have any LPS,clams or zoa to worry about. I think they generally turn out good in tanks with almost exclusive SPS....especailly if the SPS are already established and growing well.

DO IT DO IT DO IT.....:dance:

Excited to see this, will be in for a visit sometime soon.

Haven't dropped the little Angelfish in my tank just yet as I am still in the stage of adding LPS. I'll let these settle in first and start growing before I try moving over my Emperor Angel.

Here are a few new shots....

Very nice Bill gonna have to also pop by and check out the changes you have made to your display tank! Great pics!

 

[davesolo29]

i was in again on saturday. all i can say is wow!!!
this is definately not the same tank i saw a year ago on my first visit. im glad i have made a few drop ins over the last 6 months so i can see the changes first hand.

cudos buddy, you are doing a great job.

btw.. the coral i picked up is looking great. i will have to take some pics.

 

[jroovers]

Looks amazing Bill! Hopefully I'll make it in this weekend to see some of this first hand.

A few shots taken around the tank today.....

Utimate Bonsai

Northern Delight

RR Red Diablo (almost a year old now)

Blue Efflo

IAS Big Aussie Red. A new up and comer I am excited about. Has taken almost 1 1/2 years to get this red/green base colour.

Amazing collection of beautiful corals, love your pics - well done.

Yellows can be hard, had a fiddle in PS hope you don't mind - didn't have any color reference so i went off the coralline on the rock under the acro instead.
