Kayleen Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 Wow beautiful. And you had a trio nemo. How did that go? And how did you get those 3 to get along so well?

Simple sump Skimmer with aquabee5k and zeoreactor and one 400w XM 20k 2x24w T5 under the hood This looks really promising! Your old tank was beautiful, what happened to it? I hope it didn't crash!

I gave it away all of my corals and the tank to my close friend. and he crashed it after 2 weeks I think it would be sps focused and some lps on the sandbed some old sps pic Link to comment

NeonTrees Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Wow. You're old tank looked great. Do you plan on keeping some blue tangs in your new tank? They look really pretty in small groups. Link to comment
Kayleen Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 Wow. You're old tank looked great. Do you plan on keeping some blue tangs in your new tank? They look really pretty in small groups. Thanks NeonTrees Have not decide what kind of fish for the new one, considering small space. But blue tang maybe . I had my eye on 5cm blue tang at nearby LFS. Hopefully they still got them when my tank ready for fishes. Link to comment
amjez Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Hopefully man. And I love your tank, more coral in yet ? Not yet. As much as I want to fill it up, I'm trying to be patient with the new tank. Hopefully this weekend I'll get something else. That would be a good Father's Day gift. I need to pass this idea along to my wife. Link to comment
