Beautiful pics! Love the tiny sailfin! 🥰

Thanks! I wish he stayed this size lol.. he almost looks big in the pics until he is next to a wrasse. Still hasn't started to show any adult coloring but I can still see through his body when the light hits him just right.

 

He's got Tang attitude and threw a hissy fit when the Copperband who's way larger tried to sleep in the Tangs spot.

I wish I had a longer tank. Among all the tang types, I love the purple & sailfin ones the most. Is yours the common sailfin or the desjardnii? I like the desjardnii - my LFS has an adult one and it's huge! Very beautiful & active fish though! 😊

Was marked as a desjardnii 🙂

My local store has Convict tanks that are an inch long..............cutest little things I have seen..........

 

And as for the sailfins love them to..........I picked one up years ago and had it in a 20..............was the size of a quarter and sold it once it was about 2" as I knew it would get big and didnt want to fish it out of my 100 I was setting up...

Hi Tam, wow the tank and fish look amazing!  I had not been on N-R in forever but decided to check up on some of my friends' tanks on here.  Yours did not disappoint.

Thank you so much! It means a lot 🙂 Your tanks have always been unique and inspiring.

Got around to adding a Orphek bar at 2am lol.. for some evening pop.

 

I need another for even coverage but I also don't mind the shadows...makes it feel more like sleepytime.

did you just use their bracket kit?  it looks so clunky on my 2"/4-bulb ATI.  yours seem a bit nicer

I did use their kit. I am betting there is a cleaner DYI solution but it doesn't really bother me.

Turned my back for a half a second and he tried to run off with the entire carton of eggs...

So I just read through and your AC failing is a huge fear of mine, I moved in back in September to my new place so I’m not sure what summers are going to be like in this house. It’s a new build though so here’s hoping no issues ever and also the temps stay stable. 
tank looks amazing btw love the dimensions.

Radiant wrasse shenanigan's... one lost it juvi spots... not sure if turning male or what but the little on follows him/her around.

That pavona is ridiculous. 

Yah! Such and underrated coral! The growth form of these corals is so cool 🙂 

 

 

Also apparently three is not a crowd!

i have so much cat hair in my tank. not because my cat goes in my tank but because my cat allways follows me because i smell like fish and when i go to pet him/ gently push him away, i get my hand covered in hair and its impossible to remove.
