looking awesome tho  |
Thanks.
I was worried about that much light too.
500 watts (5.4 wt per gal.). 
But, the tank is ~24" tall. I think that helps a lot.

I think I could be a fan of both zoas and acans.

I know... the Aussie's are outrageous.
I don't feed them anything. I feed the fish a homemade mush (cod, oysters, shrimp, a little bit of selcon, nori and RO water), then every other night or every third night, I add Selcon to the tank. I used to add that frozen plankton, or cyclopeeze, but I ran out of both.
I also keep up with my water changes. I do 8 gallons a week. So, a little less than 10%. I know it "should" be more, but, this seems to work for me.

Hi, Scott boy your tank is looking nice! I have an acan frag from http://pacificeastaquaculture.com and I love it.. the colors on acan's are so unique. I want to get one that has some red in it. Yours is very nice, and good growth in such a short time.
