I love your tank! so many colors! Is that a blue throat trigger? Do you have any problems with it at all going after the corals or other fish? What do you feed it? I want a Trigger SOOOOOOOO bad and i have herd the blue throat was the "most" reef safe of all the triggers...

Yes it is and he is coral safe but will go after small shrimp. If you add one make sure he's the last addition because once he's established anything his size and smaller will be severely harassed or killed especially Gobies. I ended up trading mine in for a Pistol shrimp/Goby pair.

I'll try to post it tonight.

Would you guys believe this coral:

used to look like this ?

Here's a topdown shot

That acro is building a firm base for itself. I bet it starts to shoot up over the summer now. Still one of my favorite tanks out there. Can't wait to see the FTS!

cheeks69 · 06-26-2007, 03:35 PM

Thanks Frankie for the kind words. Here's a FTS, it's overexposed but my camera and abilities are limited.

I just epoxied them to the acrylic. I like the fact that it gives you another option to place corals but in my tank you can only view it from the front, this may not look so good if you have a view of the sides.

My fish list:

Purple Tang
Red-margin Fairy Wrasse
Randall's Goby
Pink bar Goby
Yellowtail Damsel
Pair of Pink skunk Clowns
True Percula
Longnose Hawkfish
