These pics stink. I am now total tang, except for a few plecos. I added 2 36" actinic blue and 1 24" power glow. Since most fish I have are deeper water, I wanted the light to be a little less bright. no flash flash

Thanks angel and tony
The arrow head is awesome, but also a curse. I like to cycle fish in and out, not the fronts, but the other tangs with them, so I always have different stuff in there.
The arrow head makes it impossible to get the fish out, and to take it out is about impossible by myself.
My stock list right now is:
7 large F0 Kapampa Frontosa(I am thinking 2m and 5 females) 4 3-4" F1 Kapampa Fronts Breeding trio of F0 Orange Compressiceps(breeding as I write) 1 F0 White Calvus Large Pair of F0 Benthochromis Tricoti Pr of F1 Daffodils 2 F1 Opth. Nasuta Tigers (Featherfin) (had 5 but the fronts got hungry) 1 tanganyikan eel 1 synodontis angelicus 8 synodontis multipunctatus 3 synodontis schoutedeni 1 clown pleco 1 albino bristlenose pr 1 large sailfin pleco

Gorgeous, Jon. I know your wife isn't really into fish, but I bet even she loves that one.

She hates it. She likes the Malawis. She thinks fronts are ugly, which is probably why I am so fond of them. She loves Clvus and Comps though. She calls all of them Bob because she says they look like an old man. She has been a little more accepting of the fronts since I put a blue light on the tank

I can relate! Though I love the mobas, for the most part I can't stand fronts. And the calvus comps do look like grumpy old men. It took a long time for them to grow on me but now I love them. She likes red fish though doesn't she? Would be harder to accept the blue. How bout getting a couple of the red looking fronts? I've seen them on a site once. Don't know if they STAY red.

saw this tank today. that holey rock is impressive but i can imagine how much of a curse it is when trying to remove fish.
those fronts are beautiful.

And cleaning it's a pain too! Just pulled out my holey rock and attempted to clean it yesterday while I was waiting for a visitor that didn't show . Tried bleach water. Nada. Doesn't look a whole lot different. Just ruined my clothes LOL
