I am stocking my brand new 240 gallon tank and want a Purple Tang terribly bad. Someone please tell me they need a home for theirs. Thanks

Finally got my lights mounted. Working on staining right now. 5 coats in and 1 more to go.

No that's how I did my 125. This time I think I'm gonna try some Plexiglas shelves reinforced with triangles and silicon them to the back wall. Then drill small holes through the shelves and the rock and use zip ties to secure rocks to them. It will hopefully look like a floating shelf all the...

Well I had my male blue jaw trigger in the 125 with the shark for about 2 months or so...but out of nowhere he all of a sudden died on me about 2 or 3 weeks ago. So that was a bummer...and I think I may have given up the idea of any triggers at all. Although I am still interested in the...

Finally picked up my tank and everything. The rock looks amazing! Ill post some pictures. I'm not sure what color I want to stain the stand and canopy. Its unfinished oak. Anyone have any suggestions on a stain color??

An 8 ft fixture??

Iv been having a little too much holiday fun lately lol. But I'm going to pick my tank up here in a few days from glass cages

Mussels and clams on the half shell*

Nothing new yet. But how often should I be feeding my shark? Right now its twice a week with silversides and raw shrimp and I'm picking up some mussels on the half shell today at the store to see how that goes. Is that enough or should i feed more frequently??

Me too! He's a beautiful fish and I can't believe the size of em already! Over 6 inches for sure!

Ok so I haven't been on here for a little while but I have been busy. Finals week was last week so now im done with school until january 17th...so you know what that means...nothing but fish stuff until then!! So I ordered the tank officially and an additional 125 lbs of LR along with it. I will...

Thank u! Im very excited to start scaping everything. Im sure ill be contacting u once I get everything together and start construction. Guaranteed to make some mistakes...but its all a learning experience right? Lol

Well I should be getting key new 240 here soon so ill see what I can do with it. Thanks

How did u build the plexi shelves though? Were they siliconed to the back walls? Still confused by how all that weight can be supported like that...

I am upgrading to a 240 gallon 8ft tank that will be housing a whitespotted bamboo shark. I wanted to do something similar with my rocks as well to provide as much sandbed as I can and as many low lighted areas for him to hang out in during the day. Please tell me more about how you accomplished...

Great job on the rockscaping! Love the empty sand bed and huge overhang! How did u do it? And I know there's a lot of sand dwelling things suck as plate corals, mollusks, clams, and other gobies such as the sand shifting goby. Cucumbers would be very neat but I am not all that familiar with...

I don't know if green chromis would work or not. I feel like maybe they would seem appealing to the shark and end up being a tasty treat. As far as the lagoon goes...its just an idea I have for when the shark starts approaching over 2 ft. Until then the lagoon is just an idea. Want to focus on...

Alright so I bought my lyretail hawkfish at my LFS tonight. Got em in my 40 breeder QT now. Ill snap some pictures and post them tomorrow afternoon when the lights are on. I also finished setting up my 30 gallon hex tank today. Which will be housing my 2 maroon clownfish w/yellow stripes until...

If thats the case then how many could i put in? Id love to have a large group of them! Which ones would be most compatible together?

Hello my name is Jake. I currently have a 125 gallon tank that has been running for about 6 or 7 months and I am upgrading to a 240 gallon 8 x 2 x 2 tank. I have ordered the tank but do not have it yet. Should within the next month or so. Im hoping before the holidays but well see. Anyway, im...

Its really all just one big experiment. With careful planning it is possible to mix in larger tanks and still have success, but, it is generally said to stock one or the other to save yourself the frustration of having WW3 in your tank.

I have a 150G African Cichlid tank that has been up for 2 years now. When I started the tank I mixed Africans and south americans. Had 2 jacks and 2 green terrors. Jacks were gone before the first 6 months was up because I realized I had a few of my Africans missing. Green terrors weren't as...

He's barely over a foot right now. I understand that the 240 wont be big enough forever but how fast do they grow honestly? I figured I had about 2 or 3 years until I would have to get my hands on a 10 footer. Or do they grow much faster than that?

Ochocincos 3 tv's were so big you couldn't even see the tank lol!

Thank you. And yes, I just ordered a 240 gallon 8ft long tank that I will be setting up after the holidays. Can't wait to get started on it
