A few photos of my fish. Its hard to get them to stay still enough for a photo!
The caribean tang, was thin and very small when bought, but feeding and growing well. In fact he's growing so well, he have to go in the 6 foot tank fairly soon.
The maroon clown is 7 years old now and has had a growth spurt recently, which coincides with trying to get the tang to feed!
The flame angel is from the colony off Hong kong harbour [water quality poor in catchment area, so these flames seem very hardy, and colourful too]

Thanks fras. The tang was really a rescue buy as I knew he wasn't feeding, and knew I had the time and space to get him feeding [and also knew he would grow to the size of a dinner plate!] He was enticed to eat by frozen butterfly recipe placed in the turbulance of the Tunze pumps. now he eats everything apart from nori!
The flame was handpicked from TMC by the part time lad at LFS, who studies marine aquaculture at Warwick Uni. The flame didn't look that special when I first saw it at LFS, but a week later he looked good, and has got even better since being in my tank. I'm biased, but its the best one I've seen in the flesh [even brighter than pics] I am hoping to pick up another 4 from the same wild colony in about a year, and if I can get about 4 different phyto cultures going and lots of rotifers [including smaller American strain] I will see if I can raise the fry. [no one has made it past day 12 in UK, and thats the Universaties trying!]
