Looks like a Planehead, but definitely is a Filefish. I just saw some for sale in Sacramento the other day.

AquaMonkey 11/27/2009 10:48 PM

That is a very nice looking tank, and an awesome set up.

Congrats for TOTM!

flying_dutchman 11/27/2009 11:03 PM

Oh yeah it's a Acreichthys tomentosus (I think).
Sullivan, do you have any problems with nipping?

Bob 1000 11/27/2009 11:21 PM

Wow, 16 t5's???

Montreal Ray 11/28/2009 07:30 AM

Very nice! No MH, cool!

Sullivan Martin 11/28/2009 09:18 AM

Thanks!!!

The fish is Acreichthys tomentosus, and yes, he nips only on one acropora.

Amazing tank ,congrats TOTM:rollface:

Felicidades! Congrats!
Do you do anything to the water you pick up off the island?
Was just thinking about the introduction of pathogens that could potentially wreck havoc in a closed system.

Sullivan Martin 11/29/2009 08:48 AM

Hi jsdancer,

No, I don't. Maybe a risk, but up to now with no problems.

Great tank, congratulations on TOTM. I was also curious about the file fish and it's interesting it only nips at one coral. Does it do much damage?
The additional pix are spectacular, thanks for adding them.

Sullivan Martin 11/29/2009 10:01 AM

No, if feed 3 times/day, then he doesn't nip on corals.

Venezzo 11/29/2009 10:28 AM

Once more Sullivan...

Congratulations! :beer:

It's simply one of the best tanks ever seen in Spain... :)

Pd: now... żĄż What 'bout NF's ?!? :bounce1:

Amazing tank! What type of gas springs do you use with your hood? I want to do the same thing with the hood I'm designing. Thanks!
