The tank "as is" was set-up in mid sept, as for the tangs.
the scopas went in first, then 1 yellow week later another 2 yellows, which i lost 1 so few days later i replaced this (well the LFS did)
then the powder brown then the lipstic.
The lighting is just 2 x 250w 14000k halides, 2 54w T5's and a 30w T8.
as for the corals, basicley what you can see. mainley soft corals but there are a couple of SPS's
BUT all coral in the tank is aqua cultured or from frags

Well with a beautiful tank like that I think you'll be able to handle that, slowly or not. :D

That looks a very nice set up and well maintained. You have used some thought there.

Except for the bank balance of course :ph34r:

It is never ending spending but the pleasure we get....... priceless.
