Current State:

In process of tearing down all tanks and putting things in tanks in the house.

One tank down and one to go.

Nope. Very old USMC pack. We probably stole them from the army though lol.

Or Inherited then after they were already broken down.


You know you're a boss when You pick up corals in boxes and coolers, not frags and small colonies

Ok. Here is the list. May not seem like much, but once you get to the last 2, you will see why there were 2 boxes.

20x astrea snails

20x red leg hermits

20x tropical turbos (no Jose snails available)

1x pom pom crab with pom poms

1x copperband butterfly that eat frozen. It is gonna love all the micro feather dusters in the 55 gallon frag tank and then the pods in the macro lagoon.

1x red v tail grouper

2x lettuce nudis

1x sea hare for the 55 frag tank and then for the macro sump. It will never run out of food lol.

1x yellow mag that is not bleached or mouth gaping. Even in bag


1x purple foot and pink tip mag that is not bleached or mouth gaping. Even in bag.

Forgot to mention, nem are in 3 gallons of water and were only at the airport for 1 hour before they left Cali from the trip to the USA, then trip here and then me waiting at airport freight for them to arrive. Hoping the extra cost of water from collection to LA and then the short wait for connecting flight pays off. Mags in good health and pink tips are getting ver very hard to get. Especially the pink tips.

I do have a hospital tank already setup and cipro, amoxicillin and a few other antibiotics on hand lol.

And this is plumbed through the wall, as it is on the other side of the wall.

Again, I cannot thank @Joe Glass Cages enough. Taking a mess of an idea in my head and making it into something. Then making a sump, yes a sump, look like a show quality display. Many many thanks to you and your team sir.

So I take it you are NOT moving?

About 2 years. But this sump was needed badly. I needed a ton more volume and this allows that. Plus it will be about 75% fuge by volume.

Sump will go for sure. The way it was built can be used with any tank I get, as I will never go less than 6’ long or 2 feet front to back.

 

[Eagle_Steve]

Holy bejeebus. Little guy is rocking it. Was a mass of gha on this part of the rack and now there is not lol.

 

[fishguy242]

NICE,NICE, NICE... patiently "not" waiting for nem pics...;Watching

 

[dantimdad]

So speaking of tanks longer than 6 foot…

 

[Eagle_Steve]

Bout to get real. Just got done laying all the plumbing out and figured out was missing things. Off to store to get what I need and then the fun begins.

 

[Crabby48]
