I kept one in a 180g for a while. I bought it as a tiny juvenile. When I gave it to a friend with a larger tank, I truly felt my 180 was a little small for it. It became very irritable and...

I would give the fish time. Additionally, when you feed the tank, remain out of sight. I had a shy angel, that would only eat once I left the room. After a while, he warmed up to me.

Lastly, I...

Fungi'ds are my alltime favorite coral. This is because one of the first corals I owned was a fungia. It grew to the size of a small dinner plate, and spawned every fall in...

I'm one of the people in those linked threads that reported a bacterial bloom a couple of years ago. I had no fish losses, but I attribute that to a good skimmer and other oxygenation sources.
