125 g build

Ok here's the new beginning.

Still in the final planning stage. I have 3 options.

Reef, fowlr, or haunted predator tank.

I was playing with my flashlight and it looked amazing from the corner. Very eerie.

I just added the Rock hence the glass being drippy. Lol

Looking good and definitely REEF!

Well I have 2 reefs already. I really have been leaning towards the eerie look. You will know what I mean tonight when my fish room is dark.

Omg is it scary the way I might light it.

If I did a full reef I have all the stuff I need as far as lighting. About 570 total watts available in my equipment rack lol.

I am considering black sand but I don't really want to buy the expensive stuff I anyone has cheaper alternatives.

I use play sand in all my tanks and if they had a black version I'd be all over that. Not to high demand at the local hardware stores though. Neither is white Portland cement. All my aragocrete has to start out gray lol.

None in the 125 though I may build under what I have with some.

How's this?

Gotta be a reef!

Ok......how's this?

There is a big 75 gallon aquarium with an oversized stand I am having to crawl under for photographs lol. I'm moving that tank an replacing it with a couch.

 

[SeymourDuncan]

Maybe I should look for scary corals

This tank used to be lion king themed. Mufasa the dwarf lion scar the Volitans pumba the spiny puffer. I set the live rock like pride rock and reefed it out. Than I moved lol.

Rock pics

And a hitch hiker

It all blue bc I use the garf purpling method. 2 weeks solid actinic and my rocks will be crusty as can be!

 

[SeymourDuncan]

That's roughy the final color

 

[SeymourDuncan]

Mmm them pods are spreading!


And I have decided. This tank is now the home of 2 engineer gobies, soon to be 3 or 5. And I also haves me a lawnmower blenny.

Goby trails.

Blenny prints

I love the look if the surface from below.

Ok. I'm furious. Not at myself, the tank, or those who helped me move it to my new house. But it just recently came to my attention that the whole tank is backwards! It had a foggy film that I just cannot remove for the life of me.

Has anyone had this type of issue? If there's a way to clear up the glass without spinning the whole thing around that would be killer.

Until then I can really take good pics. So now it is everyone's problem because there are some cool pics to be taken.
