Re: A tang white spot headache
I've just been observing my tang and he's looking top notch, feeding like a champ and no scratching whatsoever. I'm putting the lumps/spots down to the recent change of lights and the rearrangement of rocks in the tank. Had a chat with the fella at my local shop and he reckons every tank's got ich ...

Re: A tang white spot headache
Blimey, mate, it sounds like you're having a right old nightmare with your tank. I'm thinkin' your Pacific Blue tang might be showin' some stress lumps, just like my Regal tang had a few weeks back. Keep an eye on him and when he's settled back in and reclaimed his old territories, they might just ...

Re: Which corals are most colorful?
Forgot to mention, my LFS has these wild neon Gonioporas. Pricey but worth it if you want that wow factor.

Re: Which corals are most colorful?
Yo, Acans are fire. Got a rainbow one in my 40-gallon, and it's like a disco under blues. Fed it some reef roids last week, and it's glowing even harder now.

managing algae growth
Getting a bit of a algae issue on my tank glass, snails are giving it a go but struggling to keep up. Any advice on how to get on top of it would be great, cheers.

Re: is this fish unwelcome?
The thing is, your naso and yellow tang have already staked their claim, and the copperband butterfly's similar body type and color are probably setting them off. The tangs are basically treating the copperband like a rival male, hence the aggression. Unfortunately, it's unlikely this behavior ...

is this fish unwelcome?
Just over a year in with my 240lt tank and I'm having some issues. Got a copperband butterfly fish recently and it's not going down well with my naso and yellow tang. I know fish can be territorial, but I thought these three were all pretty chill. Will the bullying ease off once they get used to the ...

Re: keeping a regal tang
Nah, i'm thinkin it might be stress or boredom, maybe he's just missin the interaction with his old tankmates, like a yellow tang and a naso tang woulda kept him company, now he's just on his own.
Cheers Fleeton, I'll have to look that one up mate, not too sure about latelin Erosion, is it ...

keeping a regal tang
i've had my regal for over a year now and we've been through some rough times, 1st it was the initial settling in issues, then that nasty ich outbreak that wiped out his tankmates (yellow tang & naso tang) now he's looking great (colour, size, the works) but he's turned into a total hermit, hiding ...
