Pics thru the viewer. Sorry about the lines....

Wow Awsome pics. At first I didn't know what ya meant about the lines but the tank being a lagoon you would be able to look at things threw the acriclic boxes. Well done love the lagoon. Maybe I could stretch out my cube and make it bigger. Lol jokes.

 

[Crystal A]

Hey just a quick question do you have any fish in the lagoon?

 

[SWSCJ]

Several Ignitus Anthias and Green Chromis. Yellow eye Kole tang, B&W Clown, Clown Goby, Spot Blenny, and Secretive Wrasse. Cleaner Shrimp.

It must be hard to find them all in that tank! It's well established with corals and I'm sure there is a lot of nooks and crannys to hide in. Excellent was just curious.

 

[SWSCJ]

Actually, the fish are very active and out in the open. I'm contemplating an Achilles Tang add at the moment.

Very very sick!! Post a few pics of it from a distance and of what you're running under it if possible. Is that black sand?

 

[SWSCJ]

It is black sand. What would you like to know/see with regards to under the tank?

 

[bjj_junkie]

Sorry I'm fairly new at this but is it live sand? Dont you need "live sand" and where do you get black sand? Looks beautiful, helps so much with the contrast. Well mainly how you have your sump setup and how your overflow is. I'm building something similar to that but on a smaller scale and I like to get ideas

 

[bjj_junkie]

Oh I don't think the fiancé could handle it! Lol he already complains I spend to much time at the lfs if I had a bigger tank with much more options I would Probaly camp outside there front doors. Just a little bit obsessed.
