You can curse me later when you're humming this song later this evening.

Thanks! I do have a love of angels! Yeah, between the regal and the emperor, zoas don't stand a chance. Luckily, they leave the euphyllias and Duncan alone.

I'm supposedly getting a blueface soon. Has yours been a model citizen?

Oh man....I have been waiting for an orange tail emperor to put in my tank. The blueface will behave as long as I keep it fed. I will find it nipping from time to time on sps but nothing too chronic. My regal was the bigger problem....went right after my 6 yr old 100+ head Duncan, will eat any zoa that's not red...I know really weird. I have tried to trap both of them but they know that they are marked fish and as soon as I put the trap in the tank they will go into hiding for days until the trap comes out.

That's hilarious! And the fish you don't want to catch pretty much setup camp in the trap. Those orange tail emperors are so nice... I'm hoping my regular emperor doesn't cause too much fuss with my new regal when I put the emperor back in.

Just a heads up, my emperor eats zoas more readily than the regal. You know how it is with angels... hit or miss though so maybr you'll be lucky.

Yeah, my tangs are suckers too. I can get about 4 of them when I lower the trap door.

Got a link to your build thread? Would love to see it!

SPotter · 09/26/2016, 04:29 PM

I'll post it later. Haven't updated it in a while.

Beautiful shots, Ty.
Your tank is looking so rich and polypy!
Love it.

Thank you! I'm just waiting for everything to grow in now. Once I can't see rock anymore, I'll know it made it!

FarmerTy · 09/27/2016, 01:46 PM

Awesome! The mods are great on this forum! They helped me merge my accounts. I forgot I had accidentally created a second one. Sorry for all the confusion but it's officially FarmerTy now.

Not really...I have a Juvi Yellow chest Regal in my 120. I've got blue zoa's and green/multicolor zoa's no problem....my Bam bams.....get harrassed quickly and my Armor of God paly's always look like someone is chewing on them.

FarmerTy · 09/30/2016, 08:55 PM

Alright, now the tangs are back in with the angels.
