Hey everyone,

Currently building a new lagoon tank and wanted to get some ideas on what type of fish, aquascape, layout, plants, etc.

This one is a 90. Very interesting to see something. I would like to stay in contact maybe share ideas. Mine is bottom drilled with corner overflow I’m gonna go with a mix of black and white sand and do like a rock garden with tons of Vally ways Instead of a reef like wall. I’m going with black boxes which will be suspended 24 inches Off the tank With some kind of a wet dry sump Maybe 50-70 lbs of rock but mostly larger base sections with a little finesse... as for corals I would like a large gsp colony with some zoas off the one corner but on their own rocks. I have some hammers I am growing out in the main display that once they get a few more heads I’ll cut them and spread them around Maybe some candy canes and some coni And then add monti to my display to replace what I’m taking. I’d also maybe like to get a few nice torches and maybe add in a mushroom garden.

Build Thread - 80 Gallon Lagoon Rimless Tank!

Hey guys, so this is an exciting day! I am going to go pick up my new (used) Deep Blue 80 Gallon Rimless reef ready tank. I went to go check out the tank and stand last night and the tank looked practically brand new, the stand looks alright just needs some love (wrapping and some doors). It is...
