It is going to fill up quickly and be very unique. I would love to have a monti only tank. I would love to have alot of species tanks but cant afford to have 30 tanks. Keep up the good work.

I thought it was hard, very hard to keep cleaner wrasses? Also are you worried about the majestic, and I believe that is a a Flagfin, eating or nipping at the monty's?

What about the wrasses (cleaner). How long have you had them, and are they easy to manage?

Will be a beautifull tank when all grown in. I have a cleaner wrasse that i have had for about a year. Eats everything including the algae off the clip i put in for the angels.

I have never had a problmem with any of my angels nipping at anything and we have a potter,regal and a flagfin. Model citizens.

If you keep your angels well fed they should be ok. I like monti's too, I have about 16 or so in my own tank.
