Nice vid!
I really didn't realize how big your Hippo is until seeing it there next to all your other fish. He is definitely the big dog. Chevy seems to be swimming about quite well.
What was that last frag you zoomed in on? I couldn't tell, seem to be some reflection.

yea nice vid..
u think u need to change that much h2o? im only doing 10% every 2 weeks. maybe i need to step it up. but my nitrates are 0 at all times. so basicaly i change water for trace elements. dosing liquid plankton 2 times a weeks and restore(amino's) once a week.

I do anywhere from 10 to 15 percent on a weekly to biweekly basis. I dont think there is anything wrong with your water change schedule.mos90;5004953; said:

He has grown already since being in that tank with all that algae to eat!
He was in desperate need of a tank upgrade though either way.
Chevy is doing better. If he starts taking my food, I think that in a couple months he will be a beautiful fish.
That last coral is my watermelon chalice...it is kinda being stagnate. Either that or growing really slow. Had some issues to start with, hoping now it will start up a little.
Video quality is terrible, so you cant really see any of the corals in detail.

He only nibbles on inverts. So far he has killed a cleaner shrimp that was the same size as him, and a very small pistol shrimp...I need to get him out, but have been unsuccessful so far. I would offer to ship him down to you, however I think my lab is going to bring him in as part of our large SW tank we are building this summer.
Thanks for the compliments.

Yes, but what is your stocking? This tank is already overstocked...filtration is not complete yet, and has a long ways to go. Vodka dosing has just started. I feed HEAVILY, and I need to to get food to things like my yasha goby pair.
As you can see before, my nitrates are a little higher than we would really like.
In the end all I am doing is keeping my tank cleaner, and also restoring micro nutrients, hopefully keeping all inverts and algae happy.

Thanks bud.
You see them, rarely...but occasionally they come out to eat with everyone else.
Havent seen them in a couple days though. Hoping that when the tusk leaves, and I get them a pistol shrimp they will settle down in one place.

Two magnum 6's and the two outflows from my sump, yes.
Surface agitation is pretty good, and current underneath is also good. Might add a couple smaller koralias along the back however. 3s or 4s.
