Looks fantastic Jim, really nice and clean setup you got going. 30 fish? How about a run down on them for us?

Hey Brett,

I have so far:

6x Yellow Tang
1x Sailfin Tang
1x Purple Tang
10x Seale Cardinalfish
4x McCosker Wrasse
1x Mystery Wrasse
3x Yellow Assessor
1x Midas Blenny
1x Lawnmower Blenny
1x Tiger Gobie
1x Blueface Angel

I'm looking into picking up a Blue Haddoni Anemone from a buddy and ordering 5 juvenile black ice clownfish.

Expect some fish losses with that Haddoni, they're notorious for catching fish. Beautiful anemones at the same time though.

...it's always the expensive ones that go carpet diving !

Wow. Just went through all 73 pages. Amazing build. I'll be referencing this one when doing my small 120g.

Thanks for tagging along Drew...the build has been a labor of love. LMK if I can be of assistance with your build.

Hi Ed...I have you to thank for great advice on equipment. That anemone & clownfish tank is going to something else !

Amazing as usual. One of the best thought out and planned tanks on the net! Well done man. I hope your very proud of it because you did an amazing job.

Awww...thanks Bige ! I don't think I'll be completely happy until I get this tank to where I want it to be...I'm slowly getting there though !

Thanks ! One thing that I am proud of is keeping 8 tangs from the same family all getting along.

I'm ordering a pair of blacker ice clowns this week and will place them in QT. This affords me the time to find a suitable anemone. I'm thinking of a magnifica, carpet, or Colorado Sunburst.
