My deepwater tank

Fish Finder · Jan 31, 2010

Hello I am new to the site and I though there would be no better way to introduce myself then to show off my tank. I had some time today and snapped some pics including a full tank shot. I have had the tank up for almost a year (March 09) Everyone is growing and doing great. The anthias is starting to change to full male adult coloration. The butterflyâ€™s front dorsal fin that was damaged in collection has grown back and the broken one is starting to fall off. As for the sharks they are doing great eating everyday whatever I put in the tank. And last but not least my deep water shrimp. He was the first critter to go into the tank. Has zero aggression towards anything and loves to eat myssis shrimp.

Welcome to Reef2Reef. I read the story about those chain catsharks on reefbuilders. Really great story and I'm glad you made it over here.

Thanks guys. Its great to be here.

Jake first found out about my anthias and butt and did a write up on them.

A few months latter i caught the sharks and he found out i had them. He asked me how i got them told him some of the story. Once he herd it he asked me to write about them instead of himself because he wanted the whole story.
