Pics, 14 months and 6 tanks later!!!!


Here's some pics of my different tanks and arrangements I've had in the 14 whole months I've had a saltwater tank. It's just crazy how much I've learned in the last year!!!! I want to thank the club for contributing to my learning experience. On with the pics.

First tank set up in Feb. 05



Added cured rock in March 05



Set up a small tank to house pods for the mandarin I bought as one of my first 2 fish. (i know, i know!!!!)





June 05--- Ghetto in sump fuge with chaeto, foxface, mandarin, lawnmower blenny, rainbow wrasse and snowflake eel.

Oct. 05-- Got a 29 set up, was going to propagate mushrooms in it. Not enough patients- didn't last long....



Dec. 05



Jan. 06---- Got the 120 set up in Jan. Moved the reef into that.



March 06



April 06---- Finally got the 120 how I liked it, and downsized the reef to a 40 breeder in the same month. Want to use the 120 as an aggressive FOWLR.

April 25 2006 Picked up this 40 breeder on the 16th of this month.



Started re-finishing the stand today to match the room.



Full tank shot.....



And last but not least, the 120 as it sits tonight. Got some livestock coming for that any day now. More pics to come when the livestock gets here.



Now I'm done Alero

Well maybe not next month, but maybe I'll have a tank around 500 gallons going at the end of the summer.
