    A list of items ordered that are expected to be delivered today:

    Copperband Butterfly (2-4")
    Imperator Angel (Juv. 1.75-2.5")
    Bubbletip Anemone (3-6")
    Torch Coral (3-5")
    Green Brittle Star (3-6")

    I also purchased a Niger Trigger yesterday that was placed in the breeder. He's approximately 2". Everything listed above will be added to the 112. I'll try posting photos.

    Edit: Here they are.

    Figured I'd throw in a photo of my Show Yellow Tang (8") as well.

    Just in case you didn't know, that angel will eat your coral and any clams you have.

    Thats not always 100% true, Like always its always dependent on the fish itself. They are with caution... I have an Adult Passer Angelfish that lives quite alright with coral and inverts of many kinds.

    Yes, I'm watching to see how he does. Both fish are doing very well. Out and about. They were both moving around within 10 minutes. If I have troubles, I'll either trade or toss him in another tank.

    Isn't the age of a tang about 1 inch per year. I don't know if thats correct. anyone know the answer. If so then that would be a 8 year old Tang. Nice new additions.

    I don't think so. i have had my sailfin tang for less than a year and he has grown more than an inch in that time.

    First great pics Nvizn!! Second, I have a Bi-Colored Angel that all reef books & my saltwater LFS guru says NO to it. I have had it for over 3 years & it has NEVER even nipped at my corals. Not one fish is the same. I really think it has to do with what your system layout is & what your feeding is. I feed my fish once a day.
