    Thanks Mr.Bill.

    Ive had some arches and bridges, but i like the natural look. Ive rarely seen a reef with a random rock arch. But it looks good when its done right.

    Been awhile 3reef. haha, im still alive. I dont feel like it tho, im swamped with school and working. Tanks still going. Nothings new, just keeping it stable, making the rock nice and "live" lol. Um, ive been thinking of gettin rid of the tank, if the offer comes around. Im transfering to UCF next year, and im not too certain if this puppy is gonna make the trip. I really wanted a Glock 19 for her, but the deal fell thru. so im still on the fence. If i do keep it, i wanna get some lights. lol but heres a scape of how she sits, and has been for few months now.

    Probably several times a day. I would get some nori and feed the tang with it also. Tie it to a rock and place it on the reef to get the tang and other fish to eat it.

    Wow you weren't kidding about it being tiny. Definitely looks like it will eat like crazy for you.

    The more you get him to eat the better. When I first introduce tangs I feed a little ever couple hours all day long. Then get them used to more infrequent feedings because they are used to foraging all the time.
