Tang Compatibility!

[CONSPICILLUM]

Let's all just get along

Getting along and agreeing are not the same thing. None of this is personal. No need to be defensive when you're wrong.

:smokin:

When someone tells you unsolicited that your doing it wrong and it's cruel you tend to defend yourself. Maybe it just me. But I think if I told you you where raising your kids incorrectly you might put me in my place

op asked about tang compatability, got answers that werent what he was looking for and that he didnt like. people didnt start a thread calling him out or start dm'ing him saying hes wrong. he opened a thread asking for peoples opinion. if you are thin skinned and cant handle disagreeing opinions dont start the thread

Yep. It ain't rocket surgery.

Just to prove a point I'm going to buy a hippo and put it with my yellow just to show you it can be done

 

[anthonys51]

No idea who the op is anymore lol

Of course it can be done. That's never been the point. Bare possibility has nothing to do with this hobby.

Why would anyone need to "prove" such a thing?

Of course not.

Quick question one...

Is this what you would recommend as the standard for all aquarists and aquariums about Yellow and Hepatus Tangs? Or is it the exception, and shouldn't be the accepted standard?


Quick question two...

Why don't you put a large shark in that same size tank? If you do... eek. If you don't... why? Is it because the shark has minimum requirements beyond that?

There are standards, even though it's a range rather than a number. There are exceptions, but some exceptions are too extreme.

To argue there is no right and wrong is beyond ridiculous.

Good luck with the Yellow and Hepatus in the shoebox.:jester::dance:

To answer your question
1. I am experienced enough to do it and I have exceptional filtration water volume to handle it .
2. I sure would but I'm not because it would eat my inverts . Duhhh. Everybody knows that.

Just because you have not had good luck with something doesn't mean it isn't possible . People say it is "impossible " to keep multiple dwarf Angels. Well if that's the case then why do I have a 55 with a flame, coral beauty. And a bi color ? Oh it's because there are exceptions and no rules in America

LOL. IOW, you won't answer the simple direct questions.:eek1:

Should it be the standard? Yes or no.:wave:

Is there any standard? Yes or no.:wave:

(It's okay to admit you could never admit you're wrong.)

Fair
you have all 3 with reef and they don't eat corals. What do you do to make sure they don't nip. What is your feeding like

Always back to the false argument of "possible" versus recommended, etc.

 

[CONSPICILLUM]

I've done many non-standard things through the years. But I've never confused true standards with true exceptions just because I'm "me" and this is 'Murica.

I always know it's a risk, so it's a calculated risk against established and/or consensus better judgment, and I'm always ready with an alterate solution and for potential consequences.

I only have them with a few soft corals In That tank never had an issue with them

Oh just softies. Lol who cares about softies lol.

Yes( if you an handle the task at hand and know what you are doing ) like I said I do what I want and others should do the same. It's my tank or in this case ( the OP) should do it if he feels like he truly feels that way

I've never once heard anyone use the term "impossible" for multiple dwarf angels together. And regardless of occasional success, it's STILL not recommended.

Do you recommend everyone to keep mutliple dwarf angels in their reef tank? Does it "work" the majority of the time?

Lol like I have said previously there are EXCEPTIONS in this hobby. Nothing is written in stone

LOL. Ever the master of evasion and autonomy. At least it's culturally relevant.
