Thanks it's been a long journey

Well with a lot of rock dwelling fish and inverts planned for this tank I decided I needed more rock than open space so I rescaped. Hopefully you guys like it. Also got all the tanks for the fuge, saltwater storage, qt and all that. Just have to drill them all. Everything is going to be on hold...

Well tanks been running great. All the coral are looking good. Havnt seen the 2 newest fish since putting them in. I've seen the pistol shrimp though so hoping everything is fine. Got rid of the sailfin and the ruby head wrasse. Now all the fish that are left are suitable for my tank size. Don't...

This is a display, but the rabbit, sailfin and wrasse will not be staying in this tank. They are just being held here until the 93 gets set up. Once they get too big for the 93 then a friend has a 250 that they will move to

Here's some of the progression pics that didn't post before. Everything is doing great so far

Well the 125 I was running went down hill for no apparent reason. Coral died. A hand full of fish died. So I decided I was going to give up the hobby and just watch others tanks from the shadows. That was until a couple of my buddies builds started making me want to get back into things and...

Yeah balance is important. My problem is my ato holds 15 gallons of water and I have a spare 10 gallon tank so when I want to do waterchanges I fill the 10 gallon with rodi and a 5 gallon bucket with rodi and thats all the water I have. Then I have to wait a few hours for the rodi to fill the...

I've never been big on water changes because nitrates and phos has always read 0 and my sps have been pale so ive always had to feed heavy and no water changes. Now that I've got a nice amount of fish ill probably have to start doing them again to keep nitrates around 5-10

Now time to work on nitrates. I rarely test so decided to test and wow nitrates are at about 80 lol. I guess no waterchanges will do that

Thanks and yeah the only dry food I feed is pellets. I prefer a more natural diet for my fish Not sure but I know alot of people feed blackworms. Also suppose to be good for picky eaters

I'm also going to work on getting a black worm system started so I can feed the fish live black worm. Just doing what I can to boost my fishes immune system

Well the reaction from my fish was crazy, so that already makes it worth it for me. Doesn't hurt it only cost me $16 to make that 1 gallon bag

Decided I was going to make my own fish food Thursday night so picked up some clams and whole shrimp. Took the shell off the shrimp and threw everything in the food processor. Fed the tank alittle and they ate everything pretty quickly. Heres some pictures Don't mind the cyano, just wanted to...

Yeah its pretty awesome. I love the Starry blenny, but since he had this one i figured I'd try it

Ruby head fairy wrasse Tailspot blenny Midas blenny 2 Bartlett anthias Already have: Blonde naso tang Yellow eye kole tang Orange shoulder tang Sailfin tang Blue spotted rabbitfish 2 Blue green chromis 2 Pajama Cardinals 1 percula clown I think I got them all

Well had a buddy shutting down his tank so I bought his fish and he gave me a ton of coral. Mounted almost everything heres a few pics

Can you please make a list of all the fish in the tank? I've started reading from the beginning. Havnt made it all the way through yet but the fish list is looking amazing

Yeah i just moved the one on the left side where the cyano is lower and put it on the back wall. Also removed a ton of cyano so we will see how it does

No i totally agree that it comes from lower flow areas just hard to understand how I have low flow on 1 side but not the other especially since the cyano side is more open rock work for the flow to move through. Oh well it's receding so im happy. May throw a rw4 from the sump into that corner...

Well the cyano isn't from low flow. The middle shelf rock has 4 powerheads pointing at it all on 100% which is around which is suppose to be 10500 gph. It also has 2 of the 4 nozzles from the return pump at 100% pointed at it which should be 1500gph but after head loss id say 1000gph. So in...

Just changed gfo and carbon and decided id take pictures of the fish

Hello everyone and welcome to the build. I'm sure some have read the title and are asking themselves what is he talking about. So before we go any further heres the back story. It was time for my upgrade and a buddy gave me his 180g RR tank. I cleaned it all up and built my stand put it in the...
