    That Blue Jaw is a very cool looking fish indeed
    shame about the aggresive blenny as he looked to be a real character

    Haha half this thread is borderline nonsense so of course it was a good read :p

    I love the new fishies! I hope Optimus calms down though, I'd hate to see him go. Maybe the Golden Head is Megatron or something...

    it was a great learning experience for me. I think it taught me that I will think twice about going larger. My 150 cichlid tank is about as much as I want to go. They make a huge mess. My 46 salt is just fine. Easy to maintain....

    The Trigger is BEAUTIFUL!!! These are the perks of having a big tank. Congrat on the new addition and GL.

    For what its worth catz, I will take this big tank over the 40 I had before. In all honesty, the 200 requires MUCH less maintenance than my 40 ever did. All I do with the 200 is top offs, dosing, and feeding. I still have stuck to my no water change plan, and it has been working out just fine.

    maybe in time I will upgrade. Right now, I am having to much fun filling up the 46. I am waiting for the rest of my pretties to open up to post new pic. I got a few new ones over the last week. The 46 keeps me pretty broke, I am always buying something new. I can't imagine what I would spend on a larger one...... you know I would have to fill it up.

    that trigger sure is purdy.


    maybe i missed the converation - but aren't those suppose to be difficult in a reef tank? eating the cuc and such?

    maybe i'm all wrong... wouldn't be surprised, never really looked into getting a trig b4.

    Really kul looking though!
