Tonya's 210 Gallon

In a taller tank I have also used terra cotta strawberry pots for added height or length (depending on the orientation). That way there is no added worries about the glaze that is on some decorative pots.

LOVE this!

I can see it starting to get coralline on it and a coral or two perhaps a sponge it would be beautiful and unique!

Brilliant!

So cute. A video would be best!

+1 on a video. A wicked smart reefer once told me more pics less words ;Hilarious

I have officially been sent home from work until the end of April (or until necessary). So now I can catch up on my R2R stuff. It is only day one and I obviously need more to do. I hope everyone is healthy and safe.

I am terrible loading videos. However...I do need something to do now that I'm home instead of working. I should probably practice.

What do these photos have to do with reefing? They are lit by the blue aquarium lights, of course.

Hey, it’s pictures and we love it. Everybody loves pictures of our pets. Just no snakes maybe?

I think snakes are pretty. A thousand years ago, I worked at a pet store while I was in college. (Which is where I started my venture into aquariums.) I brought home a pet King Snake and my roommate was terrified of it. Well, he escaped and was never found again. I lied to my roommate and told her that I found a new home for him because I was afraid she would move out from the panic. I told her the truth after we moved out of the apartment. ;Shamefullyembarrased

I like snakes also. I worked as a vet tech for an exotics doctor and we worked with a lot of reptiles and birds. I enjoy all animals. I could pass on spiders and scorpions, but other than that.

Nope, not a fan of snakes as a pet. I love them at the zoo and when we see a wild snake but not in my house. Nope!

The closest thing I have to a snake now, is my son's Leopard Gecko. Although my son has been begging me to get a ribbon eel. They had both a black one and a blue one recently at our lfs. I'll admit, they are very pretty to look at.

Nothing better then a blank canvas to get your reef fingers into! Good luck! Loads of awsome people here to give you great advice!

I ordered terracotta pots yesterday for the display tank -- good idea btw. I'll see if they like it when I move them back in.

I've made a habit of looking for unusual shape terra cotta pieces and I have found that outdoor garden shops and asian markets can have interesting pieces.
