Todd's 12 gallon

Recommended Posts

Mattie's 20 was such an inspiration I decided to clean up my tank and take some fresh pics for everyone. I haven't done a portfolio of my tank for almost a year now so a lot has changed and grown. Started the tank in the Bay Area and made the long haul down to Pomona where I go to college and live in the dorms. I have to break the tank down twice a year traveling between Nor and So-Cal which is a pain. I hope you enjoy the pics!

The lion does really well with just him and the clown. When I added a hi-fin banded goby he chased after it, so I had to choose between him or the goby. He stares at hermits crawling over the rocks when hes hungry but doesn't eat any.
