Beautiful tank!! Those ricordias are so pretty. Is that a rusty angel in there? If so, does it pick at corals at all?

 

[Edzykan]

Yes that is a rusty angel. He nips very softly at rock and coral all day long but never hurts anything. I think he is just enjoys cleaning. Very easy going fish.

Good work on the tank! How's your fox face do in that size tank, and is he full grown?

He has been in there about a year and half. I think that's about as big as he is going to get in a tank that size. He is my favorite fish. He doesn't bother no body in the tank. And will eat from my hand. He will love the new 120 when it is ready. The worst fish I have are those tomato clowns!! They are so mean, even more so than the damsels. I am trading them in at LFS they won't be making the journey to the new tank.

My wife loves the fox faces... He does ok with corals? I'm considering one for my 75 when I upgrade...

 

[Edzykan]

I never seen my fox face mess with corals.

Tomato clowns are ounce for ounce one of the most aggressive fish out there. On dives I have been physically run off by hordes of them attacking at once. I just sold my Foxface as he was rooting around too much. Very efficient algae eaters. Nice tank. Hope your upgrade goes well.

 

[Beengirl]

Yeah, I've read that tomatoes and maroon clowns are quite aggressive. You got lucky with your angel!! Mine ate a bunch of coral, so in the FOWLR he went.

Beautiful tank you have there ed! Nice work.

I can't believe the size of this coral. It's so perfect and colorful. Outstanding.

I am pretty sure that's a mini max carpet anemone...

 

[Edzykan]

You are correct.
