Nothing short of spectacular! This is exactly what i aspire my tank to look like. The colour is amazing. Thank you for sharing so much with us, it is truly inspiaring and brings the hobby to a new level in my eyes. When i upgrade my tank i want SPS corals, right now my lighting is not sufficiant. GOOD JOB!

wow... great video indeed... I learned how to dive in Fiji but unfortunately I didn't know jack about corals or fish back then. Beautiful oceans and amazing nice people though.

My new fish.
But I have to confess that it is very very hard to keep. I did lose so many of them. Strongly not recommend

why is it so difficult to keep? similar to powder blue tang.. haven't seen those here in US, look so different especially the outline of dorsal fins.

Cbui, i have seen the ventralis at LFS where is used to work at. It is very hard to get them to eat and they are very easy to break out in ick and die. If i remember correctly, they like cold water.

A pair of ventralis cost around $100

PBTs are easy compared to the ventralis. My PBT has been good as gold.

Jnarowe, in your 1000g system the fish don't even know they are in the tank.
