[KINGROWLAND1217]

Built my own tank. About a year old now. Had many ups and downs. Alot of learning on the fly. Tanks doing really well now. So thought id go national with my build thread lol. Have build thread on WAMAS site.

Keep alot of softies. Have a few sps that are doing well, but like the softies better. Foxface, xmas wrasse, tomini tang, goby and shrimp bffs, clown, blue chromi, and purple gramma are all my fish right now.

I feed emerald entree frozen, nori sheets, and hikari pellets. Feed my coral weekly with reef roids and phyto. Ive put alot into this tank and will help anybody if you need help.

Cool! Can't imagine having the guts myself to build my own aquarium.
Love the cube layout and scape!

Just an update. Added a walt disney, strawberry shortcake, and tri color tabling acro. All starting to grow out. Lookin good, feelin good. Started dosing ALK due to it dropping quite a bit over time. All the corals seem good with it so far.

Hard to believe this is the same tank. 18 months later, before and after vibrant.

New updated pics. Everything is growing. Even had to start trimming the birdnest and mushrooms. Got a little aiptasia problem. But I have a peppermint shrimp in there now to try and help. Most are too low to try and cut out or treat with a syringe. Frustrating. Ill try a filefish next if I need to, but everything is so balanced right now with my fish I dont want to try and add. I have a foxface, 2 barred rabbitfish, tomini tang, xmas wrasse, clownfish, a goby/pistol shrimp pair, lyretail anthias, and a royal gramma. Theyre doing really well together. Still really want to add a trigger and/or a angel. We will see.
