your tangs looks really nice together, I guess the time for showing my tank is arriving:lol: ... now that my qt tank is up(thanks to you) I will let my orange shoulder stay in there for a week and then I well post some pics.

 

[ronj]

glad to hear you got it up and running!!i would watch the orange shoulder for a few weeks to be sure..it could take more than a week for a problem to present itself

 

[Juanfer]

you're right, I dont want that anything bad happens to my tank!!!!
tomorrow I will add a couple of yellowtail damselfish that a friend had in qt for almost 3 weeks, and on monday he will send me a scooter blenny...

Keep the pics coming as they progress..

[brady816]

looks very good ron j. I bet there all happy to be around each other now,

 

[ronj]

thanks Brady...i know they are!!!...2 have been in isolated in seperate tanks for a long time..the other 2 were in a tank together for months....the yellowbelly must especially be happy..he has lived in a 10g,20g,30g,72g, and now a 125g..he has never been in a normal tank..they were all qt tanks with BB's and a pvc pipe for hiding..i hope they are all happy now!!!!

 

[balogh03]

WOW, they deffinently look like they like each other! I would love to get a couple of the same tangs, but i think that i only have room for about two more fish and i want to make it worth it.

those are great pics Ron.. how cool to see them in a schooling type behavior.

 

[ronj]

thanks Sue!! i love this behavior..i was worried when i put the 1st 2 of them in one tank.. i was really worried about them all being together...i have wanted a school of tangs for a while now...i think my tank is pretty full now..i still have to add the powder brown back, but other than that, no more fish for this tank!!!
