I recently acquired a baby yellow tang for my tank, but my purple tang has been exhibiting aggressive behavior towards it. It chases and bites the baby tang, prompting me to create a DIY acclimation tank. Additionally, I purchased a mirror to attach to the tank’s glass. Considering these factors, how long should I keep the baby tang separated from the purple tang?

Talk about a heartbreak…. It’s been a couple months since I’ve made a post so hello again everyone! My and my wife bought a house and during the move we had to move 5, 90 gallon reef tanks. This is the before and after of my prize tank. I lost 90% of my corals. The first couple months after I almost gave up walked away this is all I have left. Thanks to a few people in the community we are SLOWLY coming back to life. When it gets tough do not give up!

I managed to catch my clowns and get my anemone off the rock last night before the lights went out. Now hopefully the learn that they can live together and will host so I can release them back into the tank in a few days. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Moving day went well. From 14 to 47 gallons. Had it up and running with some new and old rock and did a fishless cycle for about 2 weeks first. Everything looks so much smaller now. Definitely be hitting up my guy at Dave’s Corals in Lincoln,RI In the coming weeks

After fighting the good fight with GHA in a overstocked tank I decided to set up another tank to split the load. This tank is now a softy tank with a few Duncan colonies. I will be starting some mushroom colonies to give me a little more color diversity. I moved all my SPS and LPS to a 20 gallon JBJ all in one system. I’m still a little heavy on the bio load but nothing like before so it should be much more manageable.
