    This coming weekend I am re-aquascapeing my tank.After I had put this together the first time I had found a better idea for a rock rack.I have a new rock rack made and ready to put in.I found out my yellow tang and my hippo tang were getting aggresive with everything I put in and chaseing them till they died.So they are getting traded in.My anemone and blue chromisis are going to the store too.I have new uv bulbs coming and they will be run for a couple of weeks before I get my new fish.The list of fish on order.
    3 baby yellow tangs
    3 baby hippo tangs
    1 powder blue tang
    1 tribal blenny
    1 blue star leopard wrasse
    1 yellow watchman goby
    was thinking about some firefish for schooling fish wont do damsels again.
    I have 3 new hydor koralia evo's coming in.1 1050gph for behind the rocks running full time and 2 1400's for the front of the tank and they will will be on a wavemaker.
    My ecomods wore out in less than a year!! replaced the shafts with broken fishing pole shafts.LOL!! hey it worked better than the originals!!

    cool tank.. I cant wait to see your 6 baby tangs. I would hold off on the powder blue for a while as they tend to get really aggressive

    I have to ad them all at once I just went through all this and lost my powder blue because my yellow and hippo picked on him.I also lost 2 oriental sweetlips,2 leopard wrasse because they picked on them.Thats why I'm going with all babies at the same time.To reduce aggression.I'm keeping my naso tang as she never bothers anyone.

    This rock rack really does do its job its just so hard to hide it and I dont have as much viewable and useable rock surface as I should.I have no algae at all and have total flow around the rocks.I think the new rock rack will also give more hideing spots for the fish too.
