    So the tank cycled nice and quickly.. so I cleaned out my 12 gallon and migrated it over to the 155.. bought 2 black clowns to hang out with my 2 orange.. they get along great.. hoping they each pick an opposite :] sry for the quality iphone pics.. i'll take some proper ones later.. there's a gray clown gobie in there somewhere.. have to find him for a picture :]

    Anyone have suggestions for the next addition? I'm thinking a copper band butterfly... i'd prefer to keep pairs of stuff.. but i'm not really sure whats compatible.. i really like those heniochus butterflys.. :/

    Looks great so far. The pics aren't that bad, that iphone takes better pictures than my digital camera. I think that the heniochus will do great in pairs and they are reef safe too.

    I would highly recommend staying away from the moorish idols.

    heniochus are great but make sure you get the reef safe ones, and you should still watch them just to be safe, moorish idols are dangerous i would not reccommend getting one unless you have seen it eat and have an automatic feeder that can feed him many times a day
