So.. Here is my story always wanted a sw tank and decided that's what I wanted for Christmas. My son and I thought it be fun to start a local catch tank since we live 10 min from the gulf. Started a 90 gallon tank with Fl aquacultured rock a rock Benny, two crested gobies a tiger goby and some marsh minnows that my son and friend caught. He has since decided he wanted them in his room so I built him a stand for hood for a 55 gallon which went the local fish they caught and are now back in the gulf because we are now hooked in to the hobby. Now here is what I got. Still have my rock ,4 fire fish, 1 engineer goby, 2 bar gobys 1 scopes tang 1 Niger trigger 1 leopard wrasse. Whole lot of crabs red Mithras sponge arrow Hermes ect. Starting some corals have some star polyps, pulsating Xenia and some small shrooms. Kid has a dragon wrasse snowflake eel and emperor snapper and a little bittey Panther grouper. Kids I know now is on the look out for a 150 gallon tank. Oh what did I get myself into!!
 
Lets see some of pics.
