Nice..I decided to go with the traditional orange OC. Ones..maybe one day I'll get a pair of b&w

Ono forgot about my most recent purchase the empower angel. He's gonna be a stunner in this tank when he starts growing

Following! Hope you can fix the tank!

I love all clowns to be honest. I saw I beautiful pair of clarki black and whites which outsized some tangs. Gorgeous things.

Tank will be fixed on wednesday and hopefully I can fill it Friday.

I'm just painting the frame that will sit in the other side making it appear to be built in so will take a picture when I've got that in place.

Fish wise I already have a few which include,

1 Yellow tang,
2 small black and white clowns,
3 chromis,
1 powder blue tang,
1 moorish idol,
1 regal tang.

I'm thinking I may add in the future a foxface rabbit fish, a few anthias, possibly a banded eel and I'm thinking about a volitans lion. I'm aware however my small clowns and chromis may have to go.

I would love to have a ray but I really don't think it's big enough. Even if I did leave as much swimming space up top available and keep a load of rock downstairs I still don't think there'll be enough.

How about lyretails? Wish i could get some! They would give your tank a pop of pink and red!

A bit if progress today I plumbed the tank, just need to make a durso to quieten it down when I fill it. Put the mp40,s in place as I needed to back the tank up against them.

I have to actually physically get inside this thing to do any work its that high and deep. I'm dreading placing the first rock up against the weir.

Is this gonna be FOWLR?

 

[begginersluck]

Lyretails are awesome and probably exactly what il go for. I like the carriberrys as well. Think that's spelt right lol

 

[begginersluck]

Yes this is gonna be a FOWLR

 

[Fishman007]

How about a volintian lion! Copperband butterfly?

 

[begginersluck]

Copperband could almost definitely be on the list!

I'm thinking harlequin tusk as well!

I forgot about H. Tusk lol. What size your former tank?

 

[begginersluck]

This is my former tank. It's just under 90g so a good jump.

 

[begginersluck]

Not the final product yet but this gives an idea of what it will look like.

Bravo! Makes me wanna tear my 29g bio cube down for some bigger!

 

[begginersluck]

Looks like its going to be Saturday afternoon at the earliest.....

What are you gonna use this for? Convert to FW? Or stick with SW?
