Just found this Forum. Thought I would share my tank
Hell all. I have been keeping fish for over twenty years and frequent many of the boards on the web. I have heard good things about this particular board and figured I'd add it to the many I visit. So here are some pics of the fish i currently have in my FOWLR. Thanks in advance for having me. Regards, Tim

Re: Just found this Forum. Thought I would share my tank
Well the tank is a 180 FOWLR and some of these fish will be moved to the 300. There's a euro-reef skimmer, 32 watt UV, a couple of Koralia 4's. I'm one of those people who swear by water changes. I do at least 60 gallons twice a week and usually 3 times a week. I feed my fish really heavily. On a weekend I'll feed my fish 15 -20 times a day.
I have had the Borbonius for over 4 months and he was one of the fish that came in the initial batch before they became common. I got him when he was a bit under 3" and he is well over 4" and an absolute pig and the furthest thing in behavior from any other anthias i have kept. More like hawkfish. The newest member to the tank is the Tinker's and he's a cool fish. Surprisingly he was tough to get to eat at first but he is fine now. Some more pics of the fishes. Regards, Tim         |

You've got some really nice fish there!
 Well you have to be the most water change dedicated person I've seen yet! I do mine every 2 weeks and only 15ish %  It must be costing you an arm and a leg in salt!

Re: Just found this Forum. Thought I would share my tank
Yes its a bit expensive but my water quality is better than most SPS tanks. Believe the fish thank me everyday, whereas my fiance thinks I'm crazy. She's probably right. I love those fish and all fish and will do everything necessary in order for them to have a decent life. It's bad enough they were taken from the reef, (an issue I'm torn with all the time) I feel I should keep conditions pristine. Money is meaningless in comparison to life. Regards, Tim
