I kind of like it... Very simple no filtration to lighting no plugs etc... Just a nice clean set up all the way around haha...:tongue:

The reflections of the fish look in order on the side and top of the water. Maybe it was put in there just for the picture. I hope so!

[fish&corals]

poor tang if this is real no filter system ...

 

[Troylee]

No doubt in my mind it's real... Wether or not it's temporary or permanent is the question...

 

[t$sps]

It actually has a 400g sump...

 

[Neon Reef]

There are a ton of videos on youtube where they are trying to showcase a tank, and there are a crazy mixture of fish in a tank that is way too small and way over stocked, and fish that would never survive mixed the way they are. I have seen one that had a 10 to 12 inch clown trigger mixed in with tiny little fish and corals. I think they set them up like this for a video or picture and then remove them....at least I hope.

Poor fish.....off topic but took are dogs to PETCO to get food. Always look at the fish stuff and they had 8 six line wrasses in 1 ten gal tank. They were beating the crap out of each other! We told them that was not smart as they will kill one another. The person we talked to had no clue on fish at all.

Its sad what some people do with fish. And then we all wonder why they wanna put a ban on collection.

That's sad

Well we need to start being way more responsible with the second closure in Hawaii. If they close down all of the state it will have a major impact on this hobby. Most yellow tangs come from there as well as a few other tangs and fish like the flame wrasse. The prices are going to go sky high and availability on some will disappear totally. These people leading the way do look on the forums and use examples such as that one and others. Look at what this person is doing, he is keeping a tang in a 5 gallon, these guys need to be shut down!

The hole thing is a crock and led by snorkel Bob who runs a scuba out fit and does not realize that scuba divers do more damage to the reef than the aquarium hobby.

There does need to be regulations, restrictions and bans on some species but an out right ban is insane.

That is so sad. Miserable little fish. I have a beautiful sailfin tang in my 90g that is growing like crazy. I will have to find him a new home in a few months. I couldn't imagine being so cruel....or ignorant, whichever the case.

 

[CJO]

That was Snorkel Bob's tank!

It could also be photoshopped. It can be done.

They'll go to ANY lengths to "prove their point".

Not to ignore that fact that a yellow tang needs far more space than that tank offers, but with regard to filtration and oxygen levels in the water, if you look closely it appears there is a pipe in the center of the tank at the bottom that could be used to serve as a drain or return from a larger sump type system. Hard to tell as the picture is a bit hazy there, perhaps my eyes are tricking me and it's just a shell at the bottom, but either way I don't see the point in having such a tiny display, unless it is to house very tiny critters.
