Very nice. Thanks to you and your friend for sharing!

Nice lookin tank, Kev. I really like the light. I'm partial to the bluer look. I have a deep blue background on my 5g, I prefer the black, though, I had that on my 75. It kept falling off, it wasn't paint, obviously, the 5g is. The rock work looks good, too.

the dips/baths link is good. There are some folks who treat proactively for ich and internal parasites, or those, like me, who watch during 6 weeks of QT for new fish and if they develop something, I'd treat with appropriate meds, according to directions and then after treatment is complete, I'd...

Awwww, so cute!

What about a ribbon eel and some smaller, more aggressive fish; a wrasse of some sort or a pigmy angel fish, coral beauty. In the unanswered posts forum there are a bunch of wrasse varieties listed, maybe one will grab your attention

I had a pair of maroon clowns in my 75, since they were a mated pair, they were fine. I would put the clowns in last since they can be territorial together. Just remember the jawfish will burrow and your LR needs to be stable, so adding that second to last is what I'd do, the bi-color could go...

The zoas are usually pretty hardy. I went through a green HA outbreak when my 75 first came to me and I ran the lights very sparingly for a while, but the button polyps just shrunk quite a bit and have since come back and are growing quickly now.

Thanks all. I will watch the goby with the acro, I've read that they can nip at the polyps.
