Tigahboy's 20g Project - Still No Catchy Title Yet

[Tigahboy]

One of my last FTSs.  😿

THAT toadstool 

[Tempestas]

Aw man!

 

That really sucks. And this tank was looking gorgeous as well. Hope you manage to find good homes for all the livestock.

I'm looking forward to seeing photos of it in your tank.  I may hit you up for a frag later. Lol.

Thank you!  Taking this tank down is definitely going to be hard.

Tank looks great. In the pico contest if you got best aqua-scape instead of color you could have the new tank shipped to the new address. 

[Frag Factory]

Super sad on the tank tare down... Good luck with the move though and hope it goes well for you!

 

Hope you stick around and get another reef ASAP!

That would work out perfectly, but I don't think I can pull that off based on how the votes are shaping up.

Thank you!  I will be back soon!  Even if I have to set up another pico.  LOL.

Last days.

Awe man please figure out a way to transfer them!

Hey Man, I've been keeping tabs on your thread. I'm sad to see this setup go, but I'm glad you're gonna be back up and running once you get settled.  Oh, and I finally committed on a system ! I'm picking it up this Friday.  Finally. 

Look at you, always making a stir on Nano-Reef..just like the old days.  Lol

I wish I could, but it's already begun!  Most of the stuff in my 20g is already gone.  😭

Nice!  Looking forward to seeing your new set-up.  And you know me -- like to keep things interesting.  😅

Emptying out now.

The backlight is so fitting.

It truly is the twilight of this reef. 😭 It was so young! But that's the way of things I guess. In the future you will be on to even better things. 😉

 

I like how the gorgonians are the last things left. Seems fitting since they were some of the first corals you added.

It is!  I go back and forth on whether to backlight my next set-up or not.

Indeed!  The gorgs were some of the first and will be the last to go.  Can't believe this tank is coming down before its prime, but I do look forward to setting up something shiny and new.

I say do the backlight if you go peninsula style again. It’s gorgeous. If my upgrade was going to be peninsula I would totally steal the idea from you haha. 

[Jim_i]

So, new place/bigger tank?  Come on, let's not disappoint your fans...

Well I'm definitely leaning towards that, but so many more options if I went regular black background in terms of tanks and filtration.

I'm a nano guy.  I don't think I'll ever go big.  My sweet spot is 20-30g.  Besides, size doesn't matter right?

Now, now...  It's OK to have a nano fetish but as we all know, in this hobby, size does matter  😉

If I can't do a water change with one 5-gallon bucket, forget it.

That's all I do on my bigger tanks.  One bucket for the week.

[Tigahboy]

I took a gazillion photos of my tank before I started selling off stuff, so I guess I could be posting FTSs in this thread for at least a few more weeks.  Lol.

Could stretch it out longer with doodles

 

[Matteo]

[Tigahboy]

Should be packing, but ended up scaping.  😅
