I had one for a few months but my purple tang managed to kill it.
Sad, he was eating lrs/mysis and doing fine with everyone except the little tang.

My Clown tang has gone.

He became agressive towards the CBB and the Longnoose at the feeding time.

It also started to pursuit my lubock wrasse and, seldom, my leopard wrasse.



It was my only tang with the purpose of avoid agressions.

It's not worked well.



It went to a fish only tank with others big fishes (tangs, rabbit, etc......)



Life goes on.....

After the depart of the Clown tang, my pink tail triggerfish moved out too.
It was getting bigger and bigger and I heave a recent taste for small fishes.

So, for now, the only 2 "big" fishes in the tank are the buterflies.
They're doing great and i intend to keep it that way.

And there it goes 3 years.

The tank is far from its best moment but it is also far from the worst, so ............. In the end, that's all I can do at the moment.

To take good shots of the fishes is always challenging but sometimes they agree to help out......

No Bulent.
My flickr account is full, so I started to use Google fotos.
In clay-boa the links works just fine. But I'm having problems here and in a local Forum.

"...getting better..." he says. Your tank is amazing (as always).
