Good afternoon everyone. My new mum calls me flower. Daddy hovers to much.. I'm still a little shy, but I've been out pecking on the rocks and I ate some frozen mysis today.

Gotta love a shy tang.

Happy you have one again. Can't wait to get my whole gang back together. Not the PT though. I'm hoping he goes and plays in traffic.

When the 90 is going the plan is to put the pt and yellow in there but I'm afraid to. Honestly I'd like to catch the pt and trade it out for a tomni and maybe a kole.

They called me crazy (again) to put four scopas tangs together and there is still some bickering but when you see four of them grazing on the scape at the same time it really makes you smile!

I have 60 to 80 pounds of cured rock to go harvest from my 250g Rubbermaid to complete my resources. Then I'll be ready to go.

nice. I have a feeling you’ve got some choice pieces stored. For my part, I think eventually I’m going to have to make a trip to Frank’s to fill up my sump when the time comes.

It's mostly pukani... which is worth it's weight in gold. It's been chilling for about 8 months or so. I used it to build the scape for my lagoon. And plan on bringing the rest here to help with my cycle and build. I will keep it circulating in a tote similar to what I think you are getting for your sump to keep it wet.

yeah if I could source some pukani from the ocean... but sounds like a solid plan. I’m planning on grabbing the 65g defender brand tote for my sump. I’d imagine it’d suit your purposes as well

Other things on my list to do...
Drill the 90 to make it reef ready.
Sand down the stand, replace the bottom, and refinish it with black paint and a good sealant.
So need to decide on sump size, ato size, and final equipment.

This tank is going to be different for me. Plan is a venom tank. Lionfish, scorpion fish, anglers, and an eel or 2. Plus a couple tangs. (Tang police need not respond)

Don’t worry about the tang police. They are still trying to knock down my defenses. Gonna be tied up for a bit doing that, as they spent their funds on copper power and not battering rams lol.
