Chingchai,
Sorry if this have been asked before. I´m having troubles with the tank thickness (my tank is glass, not acrylic), my thickness is going to be 31mm and Vortech and Tunze say they cannot afford such thickness.
How did you solve this?
thanks

This is the custom-made acrylic holder. It can use with any model of Tunze.

WOW! This is my first time hearing of the fish. Must have cost that whole arm in the picture, lol. Amazing fish for an amazing tank. Keep the photos coming I keep an 8" by 10" glued to the glass of my tank. That the only way I wont wake up from this dream.

Also how can you keep multiple masuda hogfish from fighthing and jump out of the tank ?
I was thinking of acquiring some but I am afraid they will be aggressive.
Any thought?

Is the new wrasse johnsoni ?

Thanks again and happy fathers day to you Sir.

Wow, that Goldenback is beautiful and exotic.

You're very into hogfish I can tell, and the ones you picked out are amazing!

Dear chingchai,
Congratulations on your new additions. The trigger is awesome, hope he/she won't make too much trouble hehehe.
You know, I'm just finishing the planning of my 1000 gallon, and I have a main concern. How do you feed your BK 650? Which pump takes water from the sump to the skimmer? And which is the amount of water given by this pump? It's my first external skimmer, so if you could clarify me, I will be thankful.
Regards,
Luis

Lawrence. You are right.
They are quite aggressive. I hope they are able to get along well.
It's always the risk to introduce new fishes.
No johnsoni with this shipment.

I added a Masudai once. Went into the tank and immediately swam over and ate a yellow assessor. Swallowed it whole and then 60 seconds later bit a second one and slammed it into a rock tearing it in 1/2. 15 minutes later was returned to local store....

Luis. Thank you.
Sorry I can't remember which pump I use for this skimmer.
But it is the one BK do recommend.
