Tank is looks great! Love the neon green trumpet!! Some of them do look fake or dyed. Here's my radioactive yellow trumpet, color looks fake too- but it's natural.

I will check it out. Stole a cleanup crew out of my 55 gallon and put a mesh bag of carbon and gfo in the "sump".

15 dwarf ceriths, 1 florida cerith, 1 nerite, 1 nassarius vibex. May add a hermit crab today.. can't decide if I want one in there or not yet.. I find they like to snack on snails and they molt and need new shells.. hassle!

You're using the Evolve 4 tank? I'm almost done cycling mine!

Any recommendations for upgrades or any ideas on anything I should change on mine?

Oh and are these acrylic tanks??

Dang ill have to show you a newer picture later today. This is an older one before I got my 12" Coralife t5ho lights.

Nice! The only thing I upgraded was the light. And the pump but that was because I killed mine on accident. I like the stock pump that comes with it.

Yes these are acrylic.

Purple firefish is starting to make me mad. I've never had a fish hide this long. This guy was expensive I want to see him!

I love my purple firefish!! He was skiddish at first and its cool to see him rush to his hole when i make a sudden movement near the tank or something. Mines not shy anymore, he always sits in the current picking of little particles or zooplankton or whatever lol.
