    @top dog I have and they work. Fronts are also very peaceful like the Ray's. Just got to make sure the fronts are an appropriate size. As Ray's will outgrow them in no time.

    Thank you
    Hoping to get wild caught so a decent size. Water coming out taps in Jhb so hard it almost perfect for tangs.

    @top dog

    Very nice.
    My Rays have never done this. They only glide along the bottom or up the side of the glass.
