Hi Mark,

I'm just setting up a 35 g with a sump and your 29g tank surely is something
for me to aspire to. I'd love 1/2 that much success.


Wow.
Tim

Nori is at any LFS, or you can buy it at an Asian

The article was informative, thanks
So what do I feed the Hippo Tang blanched broccoli or Nori? If its nori,
where do I get it, the local fish store?

Sounds like a good method to me.

I had (still having) great luck with a hippo tang but I kept him in a
quarantine tank for 6-7 weeks so that he could get nice and fat without any
competition then he could stand up for himself in the big tank where he
learned to back up to any threat like a dog I once had would do when the cat
started taking swipes at her back sides
