Roscoe's 450g system

your tank is beautiful! cant wait to see the tangs!


Thanks... I hate that I have to tear my fully stocked 40b to get my PB and chevron outta there. I'm picking up the Achilles from a local guy so it is well established to aquarium life.

Yes that is an African Gold Midas Blenny. Yes I still have the Powder Blue. Both the PB and Chevron is in the 40b. I have to take apart the 40b to get them and put it back together. I don't want to put any more corals in the 270 yet as I have lost some corals already in there.
 
Ok here are some quick pics I just took of the 3 stooges LOL. I had too tear my 40b aprt ot get the PB and cheveron. Not the best pics cuz these guys are fast in the 270! They look to be doing great! no signs of real stress on any of them! They are also all eating everything I put in the tank. Right now I'm trying to get them to start eating some algea sheets. The Achilles went for the algea right away and the other 2 followed right after.
First set of pics is the Achilles (Larry)

Well you know in order for me to get the tangs out of the 40b. I had to take it apart. I didn't realize how much corals I have until they were all out of the tank! Any how I thought I would post some pics of the new aquascape of the 40b. I used the frag rack that Finn made for the back middle and built my rocks around it. It turned out looking really great. I really don't want to take this tank down but it looks like I'll have to at least by the end of summer or ealry fall.

Man I'm pretty amazed at how the tangs cleaned up my snail's shell of algea that was growing on them. I mean the algea that was growing on the snails were long and thick on some and now the shells are clean from algea as can be. I put the tangs in last sunday they did quick work.
 
Nice setup, like your rockwork. Nice lookin achilles tang, i love mine my favorite fish

Thanks... I love my Achilles. He is also my favorite tang. I am sad to say that my Longnose Hawkfish went carpet surfing. I found it all dried up next to the tank. It is crispy it was 92degrees out that day too. I took some some pics of his last pose. I'll post in a bit.
 
I had a Longnose Hawkfish do the same thing, now i have an Archeye Hawkfish and he is really mean!!!
