Re: MY 75 Gallon BAR TOP!

Great job Kyle-keep it coming. BTW, does your Foxface hide alot. I put mine in 2 days ago and he hides anytime I go to the tank, but he's out when he doesn't see any activity outside the tank.

yeah he hid ALOT when i first got him... but try this, it seemed to work every time i take a close look at the tank... i feed the tank every morning and evening. before i feed the tank i tap the food container 4 times on the bar the aquarium is sitting on. BAM a rush of 3 Dams a foxface and a powder blue tang come running outta rockwork before i even have time to open the container! Just give him time to get use to u... it tok a month for me. AND dont be worried if he does not eat and flakes or pellets, after some observation and hunger he will be coaxed to start eatin.
