Hi Nu Nu the eel,how are you? You posted before i finished adding photo's:lol: To be honest I am not totally sure what I am going to put in there yet:oops: But yes would make a great marine set up and am very very tempted.
My thoughts so far are - A new oddball set up?
A denison barb biotope?
A marine set up - FOWLR?
A cichlid set up? Idea's thoughts suggestions all welcome:)

Fowler for sure!! :) are you at all interested in converting it into a reef later on? I would love to give fish suggestions :D
 
If your going fw, I love the idea of an oddball fish set up. Some really cool fish don't get enough love.
