    Thanks!

    Oh a few more things: this is my second tank, first one was a 14g biocube. This current tank has been up since november, and everything started with frags.

    just wait for the onslaught of people telling you about how "badly" you are treating that tank... just for the record, keep it happy and dont listen to a F**king word they say :)

    Love the tank. 6-line, Blue hippo, and a chalk bass...its like my old 40 breeder lol

    ALTHOUGH maybe you could do him a favor and see if that trigger in the full tank photo needs a new home lol !!!

    Why? Cause the tang has a few nibbles off of it's tail? And that i have large fish (or at least when they are full grown) in a 40breeder?

    And the trigger and maybe the blue hippo may be getting re-homed in october anyway cause im moving and it's the best opportunity to catch those guys.

    Hippo looks healthy and happy. I think people should just use common sence when choosing and keeping tangs.
