Lets see it then.

Everything I've read is two angels in the same tank, unless it's a REALLY big tank, is just asking for trouble. One of them will die because they will fight UNTIL one is dead.

I could be wrong though...

michael_cb_125 · 01-30-2008, 06:29 PM

I have read the same thing. From what I have read as long as you add them both at the same time into a 180 gallon or larger tank you should be fine.

michael_cb_125 · 01-31-2008, 07:13 AM

Both the Regal and the Majestic Angels are some of the least aggressive angels. Also they are supposed to be the least territorial. I will post my new fish list a little later.

Also I think that my plumbing parts will be here today, so may may get to plumb this beast tonight. I cant wait.

Are they calling for an ice storm today/tonight down there, Michael? Keep a flashlight handy so you can finish the piece of pipe you're currently working on when the lights go out.

What is the deal with this tang. I kinda like it:

michael_cb_125 · 01-31-2008, 10:55 AM

Its not for me. I gets to large. But I really do like it.

You've got a 240 gallon tank. What is "too large"??

lcstorc · 01-31-2008, 12:51 PM

Beautiful fish.

Woodstock · 01-31-2008, 01:02 PM

I can't wait to see what fish you choose. I really like your taste.

18 inches.

I have revised my fish list quite a few times and I think I have arrived at a conclusion. I do not want a high bio-load. I do not wawnt to change water twice a week to keep trates down. So I have made a list that I think will fit comfortably into my tank. I want every fish to have PLENTY of Space. So here is the list:

Blue Spot Jawfish
Blue spot Jawfish

Regal Angel
Majestic Angel

Small tang (kole, yellow, bristletooth) one of these

true Perc (male)
true Perc (female)

Mandarin (Male)
Mandarin (Female)

Yellow Coris Wrasse
Lineatus Wrasse

Ventralis Anthia (male)
Ventralis Anthia (female)
Ventralis Anthia (female)
Ventralis Anthia (female)

A total of 15 fish. For the most part all of these will cary a light bio-load.
I think that these fish will give me a good diversity. I have the anthias which will be mid-water dwellers. The Angels and Tang which will venture everywhere. The clowns will give some awkward movement to the tank. The wrasses will constantly search for hidden goodies, all over the tank. The BSJF are supposed to be bottom dwellers, but if Jose is any indication, they will venture the entire tank.

I wish my tank was up

Beautiful fish . Had one in the store ...great fish but expensive

michael_cb_125 · 02-01-2008, 07:37 AM

Well, last night I made the two durso pipes, and the returns. I also got most of the plumbing done. I still have quite a bit to do, but it feels good to have SOMETHING done. Today I may get some water in the baby. I cant wait.
