Erin O's 75G Build

[JoshH]

Ah, but you see, the stand is done, with nowhere to put a sump

Hummm.... end cabinet, tinted glass doors, drilled through the top on one end or through the back, done ;Smuggrin doesn't need to be a big sump

Are you going to buy the overflow for me? Because right now, Rod and I are arguing about the lights. If I tried to throw in the cost of the overflow in question, I do believe we'd be headed for another divorce lol

Sure I will

If you were legitimately contemplating it, I would send one your way in a heartbeat

Ok, @JoshH, you impatient little Canadian, here you go! The first pic is looking straight on while sitting on the floor. the second pic is sitting on the couch

Not much of a difference, but I thought I'd share both perspectives

Looks amazing!

clown pics request

Here you go! Ignore all the bubbles. I thought I was re positioning the flow for the better, but I was obviously wrong ;Hilarious

They seem to be hovering around Daphne! Love it!

Ok, Josh. If (IF) I were to consider using a HOB overflow to a sump, I'm limited as to the size of the sump. The dimensions I have to work with are 18"x14"x20"(tall). The sump would have to be a DIY, because there's no way I'll be able to get him to agree buying one when "We have a perfectly good canister that will work just fine. Besides, those things are expensive." (No, I haven't talked to him about it recently, but I have in the past, and while that's not word for word, its darn close). The other problem I'm running into is that any sump I would get/make wouldn't be adequate for a 75g

They still haven't jumped in yet, though lol

Daphne requires a shallow dive and maybe the clowns are more of deep divers. Daphne needs to eat her Wheaties

I've been target feeding her, but not every day. Should she be on a feeding schedule?

 

[Crabby48]

I stoped feeding them because it seemed to be a big reason they split. If you feed her I would say once or twice a week to start only if you don’t mind a twin.
Once the clowns started hanging out in them they grew fast

 

[najer]

My 2 black clowns are spoiled, they have a nem each to completely ignore! ;Facepalm

good morning ,125 display-75 sump-29 qt-these things can happen

 

[Erin O]

@fishguy242, I would if I could, but he already said no to that one lol

Here's a pic of Daphne from this morning. she was feeling bubbly

 

[Crabby48]

She is becoming her bubbly self.

I would like to add a coral beauty to the 75 at some point, but it has been suggested that my clowns may be aggressive toward it. Does anyone have any experience with this?

I used to have a coral beauty a while ago and I added it while the clowns were already established. I did not have any problems with aggression

 

[sfin52]

Clowns will leave it alone. You won't have any problems.

 

[Crabby48]

Not sure why clowns would have a problem with a CB.

I've got a coral beauty in the 75 along with 2 clowns, a blue spot puffer, a firefish, a damsel, a wrasse, and a wagchman goby
