I've broken glass heaters.

I've also seen "titanium" heaters rust through.

IME, the glass heaters tend to last much longer than the titanium ones, as long as you dont abuse them.

Gonna disagree there. Non Genicanthus Angels are far more likely to pick on corals to the point of killing them than any Tang, Blenny, or Rabbitfish is. In my 20+ years in the hobby I've seen more than a few Angels bother corals or clams enough to cause severe harm or death. In that same amount of time I've never seen a Tang, Blenny, or Rabbitfish do the same, and I've had and dealt with a lot more Tangs than Angelfish. I'm not denying that the other fish you mention can be problems, but the percentage of them that are problems isn't anywhere near that of Angels.

You've never seen a Tang, Blenny, or Rabbit Fish eat corals?

Wow. I must have bad luck. I've never seen a Rabbit that didnt eat something. I've had all sorts of bad luck with blennies eating chalices, blastos, acans, etc. I've seen tangs eat clams. I've also seen them eat zoos, mushrooms, xenia, etc.

Do you want me to post all the threads?

Rich - Perhaps you have some really tasty corals. Just throwing out some ideas.

I thought of another one, There is a thread in the reef club section of the BOTR about drilling glass tanks, while they are filled with stock.
