I think they will. Imagine how sloshed around they get during shipping!

I want mine to be that pretty. Very nice work getting everything transferred to the new tank. It really looks fantastic. Any sign if the pistol shrimp?

OH. MY. Gosh.

This is AWESOME! It looks so great compared to when you first started....

How much total do you think this has cost? I really want to start a 20 gallon reef, just want to get an idea..

I think you should add a few more corals, like blue, green purple, those colors. I think it will look really nice

Without coral about 250-300$
With coral about 400-450$

Wow, now that I look back on this... I spent a lot haha! I did it all slowly though so it wasn't to bad!

Wow maybe I won't be doing a 20 gal and do a 10 instead!

So much money! And I bet if I did one it would be more because I live out in the middle of no where so I would have to order everything... Haha. But Bearchum said there is a couple lfs around I will have to drag my mom to
