Lol you went from hourly to daily... I must be slipping! I don't do anything special... Magfloat to scrub the glass every two or three days, deltec MCE600 skimmer, Vortech mp40w for water movement, a hang-on canister filter that i throw on every once in awhile. That's it

Update: the bandit has officially started eating mysis with vigor! I am so happy

nice tank man, congrats to you and your fish too!

Those rimless tanks look so sexy. I need to see if I can find a dealer local in Houston and take a look at them.

That is awesome that it's eating mysis NKT - sounds like a winner.

I have been diving w/ bandits in Hawaii and they get pretty big "think luncheon plate." I wonder if it will stop growing in your tank or if you'll have to donate it to someone w/ a 180g

Cheers

I'll gladly donate it to more luxurious digs if I manage to keep it alive that long.

Pics of new acquisition please

WELLSOPHYLIA!!
Love those things.

new addition: borbonius anthia

flash washed out its colors abit, but it's really hot pink all over

WOAH... nice arcuatus. I've heard that to keep that fish long term you need to maintain your tank at low temperatures, like 72F. If you don't mind me asking, how much are those fish running these days? Is it picking on your corals? Time for a chiller.

Sanjay keeps his pair at PSU at 78. I know diver's in Kona says temps there now get to 76 regularly.

Beautiful tank!! Thinking about getting the same one. Which stand are you using w/ it? The Oceanic tech stand?

[NKT]

one year update...

[NKT]

the combination of a bout with a WICKED fleshrot disease in the tank along with a ton of traveling on my part this year has kept me from keeping this tank as pristine as i'd like . Hopefully things are turning around for the better! I'm also getting a strong itch to go LED, just waiting for the right fixture to pop up.

Looking good Nico. What's the hot pink thing in the upper right between the two shrimp?

[NKT]

thanks matt that's an RBTA

[Wazzel]

Looking really good.

How do you handle top off water? Do you manually add or do you have a top off device?

How loud is the tank?

Happy with the HOB skimmer?

Getting good growth with the 150w DE?

[NKT]

Thanks Waz I do it manually... I still subscribe to the philosophy of the less equipment I have the better. The 150's have been acceptable I suppose, but I'm really itching to upgrade my lights very very soon.

Looks nice - I like the clean uncluttered look.
