What's in your tank?

[fishfreak2009]

What's in your reef?

I have the following:
2 Yellow Tangs
1 Sailfin Tang
2 Coral Beauty Angelfish
1 Lemonpeel Angelfish
1 Melanurus Wrasse
1 Bluehead Wrasse
1 Green Coris Wrasse
1 Arc Eye Hawkfish
1 Niger Triggerfish
1 Papuan Toby (most likely removing within the next week for nipping the fins on the tangs and clowns)
1 Blue Devil
2 Yellow Tailed Blue Damsels
2 Ocellaris Clownfish
1 Dragon Goby
1 Sebae Anemone
1 Tuxedo Urchin
Lots of Astraea Snails

I'll be adding a powder blue tang, a purple tang, a flame angel, a cleaner wrasse, a diamond sleeper goby, an aiptasia filefish, and maybe a Lubbock's Fairy Wrasse. I'll also be adding a blue linckia starfish, a rose bubbletip anemone, and a green bubbletip anemone.

So what's in your tank? :spin3:

I used to have a pair of candy hogfish. They were gorgeous when they would do their mating dance every evening about 10 minutes before the lights would go out.

Any other stocklists?

 

[Paul B]

A bunch of fish, but I forgot their names. :beachbum:

 

[hobbzz]

We've got 5 green chromis, a bangaii, two pink skunks that never paired up, and a sunburst anthias in a 40b.

What size tank?

 

[o2manyfish]

50 cube with incandescant light and an undergravel filter

 

[o2manyfish]

400g Display tank, 100g Filter Sump, 250g Rock Sump, 400g Geothermal Tank, 5' Fluidized Sand filter, Deltec Skimmer, Ozone, UV, 30g 2 story surge tank.

 

[fishmanstan]

Ok. Some questions...
What are dimensions of 400?
What a geothermal tank?
What does the sand filter do?

 

[o2manyfish]

Tank is 96x33x29
Geothermal tank is a 400g tank buried underground. When the tank temperature goes up a valve open and the system water flows through the underground tank chilling the water. Keeps 1100g of system volume cool without costing anything to run. The Display tank is the only part of the system in the house. Everything else is outside, and the sump rock is open to the sunlight.

Fluidized sand filter is a highly efficient means of providing surface area for bacteria. It's the equivalent of tons of live rock, but doesn't collect any detritus.

(2) Dendrochirus brachypterus (M-F pair)...fuzzy dwarf lionfish

D. biocellatus (fu manchu lionfish)

Pterois sphex (Hawaiian lionfish)

P. radiata (radiated lionfish)

Ablabys taenianotus (cockatoo waspfish)

Scorpaenodes caribbaeus (Caribbean reef scorpionfish)

Plus a CUC of assorted snails and a few scarlet reef hermit and live macro algae.

sounds like a cool fish selection. Could you post a pic of your tank?

 

[namxas]

Thanks...actually, with the exception of 3 specimens, ALL of our fish are Scorpaenifomes, so they're all pretty cool. I don't think we have a FTS of the tank in its current iteration, but we do have a couple of vids:

The fu manchu was sulking in this one because I had just moved it:

Small Scorp Tank

Feeding Time

This is Pterois spex...it's pretty rare to find one for sale, as it's one of two lionfish endemic to HI (the other being a dwarf species D. barberi, which we also keep):

P. sphex

Here's a shot of the caribbaeus:
