I think I want to get bangaiis for the 75. I wish I could get away with a group, but I hear that the dominant one will kill the others, except for its mate

When they mature the male will kill off an other males. I believe I have 2 and 2. Once I get mine to pair up ill have to find a place for the other 2 ;) if its a pair your welcome to them. In the early 2000s I kept a trio. 1 male and 2 females. They bred like clockwork for me... cutest little babies ever! My absolute favorite fish.
 
My roommates garage.... I feel sorry for her. I just keep putting more fish tanks in there and her house.... @cmiller5617 your the best :)
You know I'm just going to be sad when you take them all away!! Just means I'll have to buy more myself

@fishguy242 spam incoming :) My display is now a display and not a frag tank. Downsized traded and bought. Also moved the rocks closer to the center to allow easier cleaning on all three panes. Also swapped out a support rock with one that protrudes out and towards the center of the tank. Still tinkering but pretty much set

Looks amazing! You did a fabulous job!
 
I cant wait to get this thing moving... here it is with the tank on it before it was painted and moved from my friends garage... I redid a couple of the panels because I didn't like the fit. It will have some nice decorative trim on it. Needs another coat or 2 of paint. Leaving the front open for now. May put some frosted glass doors on it later on. Depending on how it looks.

I'll have to build the sump. I learned how to cut glass a couple weekends ago. So I have all the glass panels to make a custom sump out of the 40B.
 
Didn't like the light grey... wont pop with the trim i chose. So I repainted with a darker and I love it. My painting skills need work... but I'm hoping to have trim on it tomorrow:) so excited to be moving forward finally...

Got a little more done today. Corner peices of trim painted and put on. Top trim cut to fit (not attached yet) will need a couple of coats of paint. Bottom trim cut, same thing, sand paint, paint again. Once all the trim is on, I'll give the trim another coat of paint... moving along.
