My reef tank
As some of you know, I don't have a puffer anymore, but wanted to post some pics of my tank. I'm loving SW!
Bummer! I can't get the full tank shot resized down enough. Oh well.

Very nice indeed. That's kinda the direction I am shooting for, very pretty tank
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Re: My reef tank
How long has your tank been stable?

Re: My reef tank
This tank has been stable for a bit over 6 months now. It's doing very well, so I feel lucky. All fish and corals are really thriving. I know I'm taking some risk with the RBTA, but he's still in the same spot this morning, and appears happy I even have a Mandarin Dragonette, that is doing very well. Have had him about 6 weeks now. His name is Adonis - a real beauty!

Re: My reef tank
Is the dragonet eating prepared foods?

Re: My reef tank
Not that I've ever seen. I started out when I got him with lots of pods, even had mysis shrimp in my sump, and presuming also in the tank, but just to be safe after about a month of keeping him I ordered from Reefs2Go, 500 mixed pods. He is always hunting on rocks, and I'm pretty sure he only eats live pods.

Re: My reef tank
How large is your tank & is there a refugium? Keep in mind, they eat their weight in pods, daily.

Re: My reef tank
Tank is a 75 gallon with a 15 gal refugium. I assume pods continue to breed and there should be a good food source. Over time, I'll always order more, but I don't think I need to yet.
My anenome expanded so big today. I hope that is normal. Here's a shot. You can't tell by the picture, but his tentacles reach up and from base to tip, he's about as big as my hand.
