very small chaetodontoplus personifer

Exactly my reaction. Incredible tank!!
 
This tank has to be TOTM asap. I really want to read more about it. Incredible tank, incredible stocking list. C'mon LOTTERY!
 
Oh, by septentrionalis I guess you mean Chaetodontoplus septentrionalis, the Blue Line angel? They really are very territorial when it comes to adding new angels. My Blue Line went absolutely nuts when I added a semi-adult Emperor Angel. The Emp only survived because it was of similar size and can really hold its own against any fish of a similar size. I want to add a Regal Angel pair at some point and after seeing how the Blue Line reacted to the new Emperor I will definitely be making an acclimatisation box.

Going to nominate you for TOTM now. :)
 
Thanks for the info:)normally there will be no Angels add to the tank anymore,10 is enough when you still love your sps corals:eek2:

Thanks... I've found that many of my cool water specimens are able to take spikes in the summer just fine... it's the perpetual warm water baths throughout the year that really bring them down... If not for my electric bill I would run all of my systems cool throughout the year...
 
a small update,it`s a week ago since the 4 new angels came into the maintank,on the first pic you can see how fast the black line in the tail is becoming thicker,the smaller personifer now also get`s his line in the tail,it`s stil not good too see but`s it`s coming:fun2:he is around 6 cm,the biggest is growing very fast,since i have them he must be grow around one cm.
The picture is not good but you can see it,i cleaned the tank so there is much sand on the pic.

Today i also set the first septentrionalis back into the tank,also i made a fish holding tank i directly put him back into the tank,first i tested him into the basement too see if he came eating into the trap:pen so he did.

The rules are now changed,he is now new into the tank and is a little bit hunted by the male off the genicanthus bellus,he has no eyes for the conspicillatus:pin two days i introduce the second septentrionalis back into the tank,i have a good feeling about it.

WOW that is a HUGE skimmer Luc!

Your acclimation container is nice sized but Maybe I cant see from the picture, does it have any way for tank water to continuously go into the container? It should have holes drilled in it all over so the fish cant get out, or in but they are actually in the tank water...
 
Ryan,i have drilled some holes in it,also the roof is 1 cm open on the backside,you can`t see it on the picture:)
