My Damsels Have Gone Been Replaced.

sh1ppy · 06-18-2006, 03:40 PM

Thanks for all your help guys on my previous thread.
Just to keep you updated I have retuned the 2 Damsels to my LFS he didnt seem too keen on having them back and I only got half what I paid for them but at least no more bullying.(They were a B!tch to catch Had to get all the rocks out of my tank.)

I have taken a trip to another well known lfs about 35 mile from me had a long chat with one of the guys there who recomended for my tank 3 x Cardials.
They look lovely (Although they dont do much).
But we will see how it goes.
Still would lik 1 more nice pretty fish who is active not a hider what do you all recomend. (Dont worry wont purchase it for at least 2 months).

I have a Refractometer ( I think) on order so I can get a better salt level reading.
Also I have spotted a T5 Unit triple bulb unit comes with 2 whites 1 blue to upgrade my lighting, Seems very reasonable at £70 New.
Is this the right thing to buy or should I look for a 4 bulb unit so I can have a pink lamp also. My concerns with this unit is it sits on the tank rather than under a hood what if the fish decide to jump (Which has happend to me before), are there other units that can be wird up under my hood I really do struggle with the lighting thing as there are so many options Ie T8 , Metal halide. Im also still not sure what coral I want to keep at a later date as there are so many beautifel ones out there.

Well Thanks Again.
Jason

JMO, but I wouldn't do a tang in a 4ft tank. They need a lot of swim room.
