thanks for the welcome (again!!). I'm really glad I found the forum - especially as I'm new to all this - it's great to have so many experienced brains to pick!! As a newbie I'm sure I'll be doing alot of that! Would definitely be keen to turn up at a TT meeting also!

That is a stunning coral!
-
Thanks - I'll definitely do that. At least I've got heaps of time yet to sort out the best choice fish wise! However I can definitely see a bigger tank in the future if this one goes ok.... Will also be interested to see how an anemone goes if fish-unit or anyone else gets one in a small tank....!

Thanks so much for all the advice! I'd only thought of the damsel as liveaquaria.com had the yellowtail listed as less agessive etc and compatible with clownfish + with caution with dwarf angels - but i'm guessing in a bigger tank. so essentially it sounds like my best options are clownfish and anemone (taking into account the concerns re lighting,stinging etc) + no/few corals or one carefully chosen fish and corals.

Thank for that - I'm also getting a Red Sea Max... If I "saved" the Mandarin for another later tank (wishful thinking!!) do you think the RSM would be be OK for just your standard clownfish, a dwarf angel of somesort and maybe a damselfish - from my (limited) understanding they should all be pretty hardy? I seem to remember John saying something about 36cm of fish (from the manual??)

HI, I'm new to this forum (and to marine!!) Firstly - awesome tank - very impressed! Secondly, I see you have a green mandarin - I'm also really keen to get one eventually... Given their feeding behaviour/requirements would you advise reducing the amount of fish in the tank - I see you have that and the flameangel? Thanks!
-
Thanks for the welcome! Have to say I can't wait to get started - I'm already seeing the possibility of more than one tank....! (That is assuming I go OK with the first one)

Hi everybody, I'm in CHCh and just getting into marine - should be picking up my new Red Sea Max in a week or so. Great to see some awesome tanks already underway.... will give me something to aim for at least!
