Coral stocking will be primarily sps with zoas and chalices around the bases of the rockwork

Sps will be similar to what the iwagumi reef has. Any idea the name on the more thick stemmed stubby acros that he has?

Yeah, not real sure about running both.. I can always take the tlf offline if I need to.. Right now its only running about 5-10% of the biopellets it can take (handful). Wanted to start small on the pellets and work my way up..

I suppose I could run gfo instead but I don't seem to have any phostpate problems..



As to the clown tang, I'm extremely sad to say he has died.

He "disapeared" in the evening 3 days before I switched tanks. Was in perfect health, ate like normal that morning, nothing abnormal was noted. No flashing, visiting the cleaner shrimp, etc.

No bones were found either


I will be getting a new one though!
I know i'll be pushing my luck but I really loved that fish..

The reason the naso is labeled temporary is because I'm waiting for the clown tang to come in, i'm hoping that by having a 7" naso in there when the new tang is introduced he wont' be as aggresive and will accept a lower place.
