Help A Noobie


Hi there, this is my first post here and it's because I need an advice......... I have a 50 glls fish only tank with 2 damsels and 1 yellow tang, and just a few moments ago I add one BEAUTIFUL Auriga Butterflyfish......... but, the yellow tang started immediately to attack his new tank mate. What I did is to turn off all the lights in my house and then I moved all the rock, now it looks like a different tank with the new rock arrangement. I hope this will work, but if you can give me another good advice, it will be welcome................ thanks a lot.

Welcome to TRT.

Yes this is where you ask questions (sort of). If you go to the particular forum you think your question fits in, on the right side of your screen just at the top of the thread list you will see a button that says "New Thread". If you press that button it will bring up a screen where you can start your own thread and ask any question you would like.

If you have any more questions about how to use the site just ask and some one will have the answer for you.

Lepez, your tank is way too small for a tang . you need at least 100 gallon. he is going to get much bigger. and they can be pretty nasty ( attitude) towards others when they want to.

OH ..

to trt.
you too island reefer.
