New fish are added and so far so good.  Sohal tang is being the typical Sohal, putting the majority of his aggression towards the powder blue tang.  My yellow eye cole tang has also showed quite the attitude with the new fish.  This is what I added to my tank today

Angels
Queen, juv emperor and blue face

Tangs
Tennenti, fowleri, powder blue, powder brown, gold rim, male naso, blond naso, orange shoulder, atl blue tang

Here is a short video of the new fish, I will post some not so good iPad pics as well

I could only take iPad pics...... None of them turned out worth a darn so I posted the best few. 

So far so good.... Video shows the emperor and blue face angel eating for the first time in the display tank!!  Only fish I haven't seen eat anything is the orange shoulder tang.

I'm stunned they are getting along together. Is that called locker rooming?

Locker rooming??  Really?

Many people put fish in much smaller tanks then they should.  So far zero aggression between angels and tangs also seem to be doing just their normal stuff....

Here is a locker rooming video for "the WuSue"  :not speak:

So far so good..... Blueface is still very shy when I come in the room.  Orange shoulder also is on the shy side.  They are out swimming until I come in the room.  The both ate out of my hand in qt, guess I have to get their trust back!

Next purchase will be a new protein skimmer then a controller of some type, seems like apex is the one to go with.

Here is another video....you can see the orange shoulder and blue face hiding from me

However blond naso and make naso are out swimming.....

Blond hasn't eaten prepared food much once he's been in this tank however he is eating lots of algae and is fat.  Atl blue tang has eaten only algae and is also quite fat.....

It is a sweet tank. It would be neat if you could get a bunch of different types/colors of macro algaes & sponges and Gorgonians to grow on your rocks. That's if you could keep your tangs and angels from eating it all.

I've tried a few types of macro algae but with 2 tangs it doesn't last long.
My sailfin picks at the algae growing on my Jebao pump when I put it in "Feed" mode lol

Just wanted to say thanks Gary for the invite over to see your tank and gorgeous fish. Also for the large portions of cheato. I enjoyed the conversation.

Thanks for the compliments :) I do not think I posted this video... Its a short youtube video of the tank



I did qt for a month or so and treated prazipro and thought it killed the flukes.... Turned out it didn't so I had to treat my tank with prazipro and I left it in the water for two treatments over 14 days.  Finally looks like after buying a new bottle of prazipro the flukes are gone..... Unfortunantly I lost my gold rim and powder brown during this treatment.

All other fish are doing great and last week the blond naso finally eats flake food consistently.

My queen is being a pita though.... Prefers flake food and doesn't touch formula 1 or 2 frozen food when I feed them. 

Aqua vista.... Do you still have that euro reef/reef dynamics skimmer?  I am debating in getting one (still saving for it) however I can't decide if its worth the money vs another company.  Debating on their xrc750 or xrc1000 as well as their bio pellet reactor
