Re: Tank Update- My 90G Pile of Rocks

I came across this pic of my birdsnest frag on March 12, 2011, so it was taken about a year ago.

A nice before and after comparison from the picture in the previous post.

Very nicely done.

Congrats!!

Thanks, the leopard wrasse is doing well. It seems to pick food off my live rock and is now starting to eat frozen food too. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Re: Tank Update- My 90G Pile of Rocks

I am almost at capacity, but have been waiting to add final members (more aggressive).

These are the contenders up for consideration:

Purple Tang (Red Sea)

Black Longnose Tang

Harlequin Tusk (Austrailian)

Yellow Tang

Yellow Belly Blue Tang

Sargassum Trigger

Reef-Safe Bannerfish

saragassum triggers are the whole reason i set my tank up.  been looking for them ever since.  everytime someone gets them they sell so fast.  or they only get one.

I heard they are awesome!

Re: Tank Update- My 90G Pile of Rocks

I think the sargasm or any trigger for that matter is not a good idea in a 90g...at least long term.

You may not have algae yet but at some point your gonna want algae eaters......my vote is definitely the purple tang from that bunch.  Tangs are a reef staple....you cant just have one little one.

I agree. A Purple Tang would be a nice addition. The Harlequin, though beautiful, is actually a very shy fish. They tend to hide a lot, where as a Tang, is enjoyable to see out in the open all the time.
