    id love to have a blue hippo, but i think im done with tangs for a while, my yellow tang was a mean SOB once i added the copperband. so i put the YT in a holding tank, and he died within 24 hours. so im thinkin somthing a bit more hardy, a lot less agressive, and just as active, thats why ive been think about the school chromis :) but you lost the the others you had?!?

    Yeah, I lost 3 total. The thing is I didnt get them all at the same time, which I think was part of the problem. I kinda kept adding and I thought I got the same size, turned out they were way smaller. Some got bullied, some just... died.

    I think Ive read somewhere that yellow tangs are known to be SOB. Its suggested to add tangs towards the last.. (but you know that, Billie)

    Yeah, it was sad to see only the spine and bone floating around, took me a while to figure out that it was a chromis (whats left of him).

    Thanks, bro!

    Nice build

    Your tank is looking great, also thanks for the build thread have enjoy it.
    If you paint your plumbing the color of the wall behind your aquarium it should help stop pulling your eyes from the tank to the plumbing behind.
    You can see if it works by painting binder paper and wraping around pipe to see if it does anything for you.:)

    Hey, thanks!

    Trust me, I thought about match painting the PVC. I have the paint left over in the garage. But I was hoping to get more coralline way sooner.

    I agree with this! I didn't really like clear backs until I saw your tank. Gotta say you changed my mind it looks great. Still jealous of your tangs too :p
