nice looking tank what kind of skimmer r u running and how many tang do u have?

 

[tangerine]

thanks,in total i've got four tangs. purple,yellow,hippo and a tomini tang. the AT in the picture did not make it as it was not feeding. my fault cos' did not check when i purchase it.

i'm running a 32" beckett and it does a pretty good job of keeping my nutrients in check.

How long have you had the sun polyps? And do you feed them? If so, with what?

Nice Tang collection.. Are fish expensive in KL?

depends on the origin of the fishes. fishes found at our shores Indo Pacific are reasonably prized but fishes from your side or Red Sea are pricey.

for example,

yellow tangs are priced at between RM70-120 while the Purple Tang,Sohal are in the RM150 onwards region.

had them for about seven months. i do feed them daily at the same time in the evening with cyclopeeze.i don't target feed them if that's you are refering to. what i do is,i place it at the place where the flow do bring the cyclopeeze down to it. will just dose a bit into the tank and when the sun senses the food and open up,then i dose more into the tank.

oh,arowarnas,yeah we do have a lot of aros keepers here. just that it's not my cup of tea. do appreciated beautiful specimens like the one you posted but can't imagine having only one fish in a big tank.

 

[reefman]

these fishes r more than beauties. its the way they present themselves,like royality. n the way they swim, they glide thru the water like eagles soaring in the wind with their wings spread out.

 

[tangerine]

i do agree with you on that. in fact i did have a silver one a long time back. what attracted me to them besides the graceful way they glide(as u describe) thru the water was their mouth. somehow it always, to me anyway,portray a very arrogant look. :smile:

that is a very nice 150. i want a tomini tang for my new 90 but they are somewhat hard to find in these areas.

 

[tangerine]

thanks. the tomini is also kind of hard to get on a regular basis over here. mine has got bigger and it's body shape has elongated. prefer it more when it was smaller. so much cuter.

it's still the best algae grazer around,IMO.

 

[tangerine]

here's my tomini
