Its all good. Good luck with him, theyre just like the powder blue, disease magnets. Hope he does well for u.

I hear what your saying.. so far so good, he is very active, personality plus, eating very well..but, as you said and we all know they are ich magnets. I just wonder how ppl have them for years in their tanks with no issues..

Just purchased this 135 gallon from sherry today, single left side overflow. Will have a 30g sump underneath, hoping it will be big enough since my stand wont allow for much more unless i get it custom built, and right now thats not in the budget lol. Its going to have a 60" 8 bulb ATI for lights, and for now this Marine Sources skimmer i have, until i can afford a better quieter one. Not sure yet on a return yet or what i want to do since its not drilled for one and dont feel that comfortable doing it myself, might just do a hang over the side one. Any input on good returns, was thinking of buying brandons mag12, but needs to be internal and something that wont be electricity hungry. will this be plenty and some for reactors and what not. Any other input would be greatly appeciated since ive never plumbed a tank before. Thanks

I like the flags....oh and the tank too ;-)

The powder blue i have that steve is currently caring for has been captive for a while, so i got lucky there. When i bought him off darryl i think he had him for 3 or 4 years and someone had him before that. So im hoping that i can keep him around for many more years.

oh, makes you wonder doesn't it..I thought that you got him back, I believe in treating the tank. stores do.. I set up the qt tank on Wednesday and added him on Friday, so far so good..

All my flags got burned when I got married......maybe "vaporized" you could say

 

[reeferkeeper420]

Lol noone will burn my flags haha.

 

[reeferkeeper420]

[sunnykita]

[reeferkeeper420]

He his, i just hope my stupid yellow tang doesnt stress him out to much with his tail whipping lol. He'll be put in check tomorrow with the larger scopas in adding lol.

How's the regal doing?

 

[reeferkeeper420]

How's the regal doing?

So far so good. I didnt see him too much today because i left right after work

 

[reeferkeeper420]

So unfortunately the regal didnt make it i dont think. My parents found him stuck to one my powerheads somehow.. dont know how he woulda got stuck when i have fish 10× smaller than him swimming around. Sucks, it was a really beautiful fish. Couldnt see anything visually wrong with him.

 

[Kevin Tran]

That a shame, was a beautiful fish. Now you need to replace it to feel better

 

[heath]

oh crap Riley, can you put him in a basket and let him float around the tank or is he a gonner..

 

[reeferkeeper420]

No hes a goner, scooped him out today sadly.

 

[heath]

oh crap, that's too bad, how big was he.. I thought that he was about 3"

 

[curiousphil]

Sorry for your loss that's always such a shitty feeling
