2manytanks Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 very beautiful tank. I really like the how the macro is growing. when the tang and butterfly grow, where will they go.. ? Link to comment
Crakeur Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 that is a lot of fish for a 13 gallon but the tank looks spectacular. Link to comment
jocole37 Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 ewww, a tang in a 13 gal...nice tank btw. Link to comment

Isaka Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Everytime I see this tank I drool..... I don't know what you are doing, but it sure seems to be working. More pictures!!!! Link to comment
JohnnyMTB Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 The colors are absolutely stunning, really like the look of the caulerpa in the tank, might have to go and find me some of that. Does seem to be a lot of fish for a 13, are you running any other filtration besides the skimmer? Link to comment

MarLooney Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Still looks great!... loving it =D hey, i'm going to Korea in March... 3-hour stop over from Japan to USA... HAHA Link to comment
brahm Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 nice tank!, tang looks a little ehtiopian though. Link to comment
ａｗａｋｅｄॢ Posted January 11, 2004 Author Share Posted January 11, 2004 thanks all~ JohnnyMTB, I have no filteration and don't like it. The live rocks, sands is the best fiteration...I guess... and the fern algea help the water clean... I put the fern algea directly in tank instead of refugium. It's really great advantage for my tank. I used to treamming the algea when water change. you try too... Reefer_Buddha, *cough* PHOTOWORKSed *cough* (not photoshop) why don't you use the PHOTOWORKS ? http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/showthread...&threadid=21721 MarLooney, That's nice...Have a good trip~ brahm, whta is ehtiopian?

JLTRUK Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 I would also like to mention that any other person, that posted pics of a butterfly and a tang in their 13gal would have been severly questioned. Yet for some reason everyone seems to applaud your pics. Unfortunately I can not applaud keeping a butterfly and a tang in a 13 gal...even if the pics are not real. There are many people who visist this site in search of answers and help, this is a disservice to those people. Link to comment

supernip Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Also, I like your tank, the nisso. I like how you're willing to spend a lot of money for a nice tank, it makes every aspect of your tank just right. 13,000yen=112USD, very nice tank. Quality like starphire I'm going to try to get one myself. Link to comment
JLTRUK Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Originally posted by Tagamet He clearly said that they would need to be moved to a larger tank. Tagamet they dont fit now... I have a 100 gal with a yellow tang and it swims the length of the tank all day long. I rarely get on the soap box about proper husbandry, but a tang and a butterfly (even small ones) in a 13 gal...c'mon yah, they are very nice pics...I'll give her that. Link to comment
brahm Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 ethiopian...as in the people from ethiopia.. as in the starving people from ethiopa.. Your tang looks Malnurished... Under fed..To skinny...Anarexic Link to comment

I rarely get on the soap box about proper husbandry, but a tang and a butterfly (even small ones) in a 13 gal...c'mon ... I certainly share your concerns about any fish being kept in a setting that's not appropriate. I have two tangs and they cruise the length of their eight foot long tank constantly. Personally, I think that they need at least 4 feet of cruising room, once they exceed 4 or 5 inches in size. Having said all that, this nano owner did recognize that those fish will need to be moved. In the end, we obviously have no control over that. We have both now clearly stated our opinions, and I think that that's where we should leave it. A 13 gallon nano with a great "photo op" which people praised as looking beautiful. Just my .02, Tagamet Link to comment
birdman204 Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Originally posted by Reefer_Buddha *cough* photoshopped *cough* Why do you have to go a jive like that man? no need really.... This isn't the place for it. I am sure there is more than one person that feels the same way , but we don't need to jive on people here. JLTruk - I am with you as far as not praising it. It seems some people get smashed for taking care of an animal that has some chance at life, and then others, who put tangs in a 12 gallon, even if temporarily , get praised. But whatever. Brahm - It's malnOurished, and anOrexic The tank does look good! but I do not agree that the copperbanded and the yellow tang are in there. Link to comment
DAP Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Is there some kind of "frosting" on the back glass? Link to comment
