Thanks!
Great vid Jim ! This shows everyone about how much to feed even with this number of fish & how they eat it all right away !
How often do you feed these amounts?
All your fish look so very healthy & beautiful, if RS ever starts a TOTYF (tank of the year Fish) imo you would win !

Thanks for the kind words as always Glenn. I subscribe to smaller amounts of food multiple times a day. Even with 30+ fish you can tell all the food in video gets eaten in a few minutes.
My typical feeding regimen:
Morning: chunk of Hikari mysis shrimp and green/red nori tied to a rock.
Afternoon: New Era Spectrum pellets and flake.
Evening: Hikari regular/jumbo mysis and Rods Food.
Fish are my first love in the hobby. I'm slowly working on the coral part in the tank.

Thanks Jan,
He is a cool fish. By the way, I took a peak at your RSM500...very nice! I owned a 250 way back in the day (and during our second story remodel).
Cheers,
Jim

Cheers mate, yeah the 250 was a good starter tank for me, since I'd never had a marine tank before. Got the upgrade bug quickly though

Tell me about it. I went from a 55> 75> RSM250> then to the present 450!

Thanks Frankie,
They play nice when the camera is on, but I get the normal chasing with the tangs and the occasional wrasse exerting dominance.
