I've wanted this one of these tangs for years and haven't been able to find one. This guy arrive in a box weighing in at 45lbs. Can hardly wait to get him in a tank.

Forgot to post some pictures. It's a Mustard (Guttatus) Tang - Acanthurus guttatus. These pictures were taken the first day in the tank/



One of the cleaner wrasses checking him out.

The newest addition was added yesterday. A Pencil Wrasse...a fish that I have never heard of, or seen. Great coloration. I got a few pictures before it dove under the rocks.

Chuck,

I sit in awe, how can you keep so many tangs? Have any become more aggressive, defending territories in the tank? Any compatibility issues?
Thanks for sharing with us all your prized fishes. I nominate yours, tank of the year...Congrats on all your fine work! A true inspiration to all.

There really haven't been any issues that I have seen. I did have some problems when I put the Achilles tang in the tank. It was harrassed into a corner where I finally netted him and placed him into one of my other tanks. Same thing happened with the Sohal which was also placed in another tank. Both of those fish are doing well in the other tanks. Everyone else seems to be getting along nicely in the tank.

I thought that I would post some pictures of some of the other clams in the tank. It's easier to get pictures of the fish than the clams...

I couldn't get a full tank shot to look very good, so I took some pictures starting from the left side moving to the right and then back.

I second that nod and also am in amazement at your live cam shots. Must take allot of work to keep a website like that up and running (yes I know it's not done yet but the outlook is awesome) Your tank and your entire setup are truly amazing.
