Why not just glue the small disk directly to the rock?

if i wanted the frag to eventually encrust on the rock then thats what i would of done... i dont want that to happen so it got a bigger disc... any other questions :biggrin:

 

[tosiek]

Wouldn't it encrust over both disks eventually? :scratch:

Nice work T. You been takin pics of growth progress every month?

 

[Tonyscoots84]

yea it would, but i figured it would less likely grow on the rock with the bigger disc there then if it wasnt there...

yea check out my tank thread in my signature... i havent updated the pics i have on here for this month

thanks T...

ok since my tank has been doing really well, but my corals arent the colors that i want them to be whats the next thing i should try... my best guess is that my nutrients are very low.... i dont feed alot and what i feed is omega flakes and freeze dried cyclopeeze... im scared to feed mysis shrimp and also the pappones due to the phosphate issue i had with it a while back... do i have much to worry about know that i have a skimmer that is performing the way it should... as i said my colors are good i want them to be better... any suggestions would be great...

since i cant find an achilles tang at the size i want, i was thinking about going with a blonde naso tang and a Copperband butterfly fish and maybe a few smaller fish within the next month... i figured that would help with nutrients...

thanks in advance guys

Tony - while i can't answer the questions you posted, i just wanted to say that i just found this thread for the first time, and I am really awed at your set-up. The stand is beautiful, your tank is lovely, and i am really impressed at the plumbing (I'm still trying to figure out plumbing for my tank.... I just don't get some of the spatial/technical stuff... am trying, tho!)

anyway, it looks amazing and best of luck with working out these questions!

Hey Tony, you know this hobby is all about patience. If you truly like the achilles don't give up on it. Keep looking, I'm sure you will eventually come across the one you want. You know how it goes, you settle for the naso, and the next day you'll find that achilles.:wink1:

Naso is one of my favorite fish, just remember you may have to look at supplementing something cause once you get any tang you are gonna have to QT it for a month before putting it in the tank.

 

[Tonyscoots84]

thanks daisy... any question i can help you out with just pm me and we can talk...

Awi i ran out of patience a long time ago hehehe

[Tonyscoots84]

:lol2: @ chief... u no im :joke:ing...

thanks pnoy, the blonde naso is a nice tang.......

 

[Awibrandy]

Try to get a pair. Male & Female Blonde Naso they are great together. Mine use to come to my hand when ever I put it in the tank. They ate from my hand. And were always in every pic I tried to take. They were such hams. I miss them.:sad2:

 

[Tonyscoots84]

awi i think adding 2 more tangs at once with overload the bioload... but one naso tang would suit the tank well ...

Maybe you can mount the naso on a square plug
