Here are some pictures at about my 3 month mark. Sorry I don't take good tank photos like some I've seen on here.

Sounds like a good time to zap nems

Tank's looking good! Quit being so modest. I've got some stuff (coral) for your white overflows whenever you're ready.

very nice rock work....did you drill and use pipe or something to hold it all?

shananigans · Oct 15, 2009

Yes, you can actually see some of the orange rod on the right.. worked out very well and I don't have to worry about avalanches. :bigsmile:

After looking at your main pic, it looks like a sea turtle is swimming into your tank from the back, the overflows are the fins, and the return is smiling at me. lol

Bri Guy · Oct 16, 2009

And now you cant use the excuse "I have too much on my plate" cause that plate is huge and can't be overfilled! lol

Fishcrazy06 · Oct 16, 2009

I dunno Shannon I was at Johns today and that was one pretty nice looking Tank!!! Was nice and clear water running there and looking ohhhhh so nice!!!!

Lol, never noticed a resemblance to a sea turtle but very good imagination! I am actually trying to feed my plate as I type this. Half hour and counting... CBS already robbed one piece of shrimp

Using a piece of milk container to prevent robbers :tongue:

Eric, I know that tank is probably a great coral tank but I so love how my stand and canopy match my hardwood floors and it fits my living room so well. I'm not allowed to get any more tanks seeing as I have two spares as it is. Eventually I may need to switch up but not right now.

You can say I told you so in two years if u want!!!
