Thanks.

With some coral chips and Seachem lake salt + tanga buffer added, the water pH stabilized at around 8.

btw, they are taking pellets, frozen bloodworm, live brine shrimps and frozen mysis shrimp.

they're so beautiful ben

your photos and fishes are pulling me into tangs

**amiidae** · 01-09-2009, 10:18 AM

Thanks.

I had gone thru something similar initially.

For me, I thought that it might be hard to up keep as all my tanks are more with pH on the neutral side. However, after trying two Tanga fishes, I gained confident and now I have a tank just for these guys.

They are so colorful, don't need live feed and most of them don't get too large ... resisting is usually futile
