debbeach13 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Things certainly are moving right along. Is the 20 empty now? The tank looks awesome right now but needs the rest of that rock for fishy homes. Following along. 1 Quote Link to comment

I don't have anymore gear (at the moment) to order but definitely will again with them. 🙂 Please make more merch like t-shirts hats stickers, etc. 😉 We currently have a few ideas in the works. Any type of merch that you want to see? We are always open to ideas 😀 -Steven 2 Quote Link to comment

Saltwaterfishtanktv guy on YouTube has some funny aquarium shirts so maybe something in that realm. Think dad humor 😂 Quote Link to comment

Maybe a small one for my black widow BTA I'm getting today. The main structure has holes, caves, arches, hang offs, you name it. Plenty of hiding for the fishy If anything I'll add some rock to the back right corner and have it connect to the main structure. I just want my tank open 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment
debbeach13 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 My bad. I thought the bin was full of coral on rock that was going in. I love the way it looks right now. 1 Quote Link to comment

Matteo Posted June 16, 2019 Author Share Posted June 16, 2019 So I got everything setup! Loving alllll the gear! Light comes Wednesday. I traded the clowns in for a beautiful lighting maroon clown today. Worth it because new black widow nem is being loved in. Three azure damsels were added. And a Yellow Watchman and Tiger Pistol Shrimp! Question! My two azures are picking on the other azure hiding all the time. Will adding one or two more be a good call for evening out aggression? Bioload maybe pushing it but I have very adequate filtration and methods 😉 5 Quote Link to comment
Matteo Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 So I had to return my mighty jet to marine depot for a replacement. Mine starting making a grinding noise and was not silent the least bit 😞 All good though, I trust marine depot to follow through. Probably won't get the replacement until next week but that is okay, using a sicce 1.5 for now that I got from @pgrVII It came in handy! Equipment updated and overall build 1 Quote Link to comment
A.m.P Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Odd numbers tend to work best, but three can be awkward. Watch for signs of serious damage like fins torn to the base or the fish constantly in stress-colors and hiding near powerheads/returns at the surface (and not eating), otherwise it can take a few weeks for things to settle down. 2 Quote Link to comment

I had a fourth and took him back because of this. All three are established with their own home now 🙂 each as a little Rocky area to hide if need be. They are slowing chilling out though every day. 2 Quote Link to comment

I bought two more v3 pucks from him and wired them in there along with added some more fans. So a lil bit of both. And yes the tiger pistol is quite large 😂 will be a good pair when the goby grows. 1 Quote Link to comment
Matteo Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 Traded my frammer for some SPS and a God of War favia. Tank is pretty much full. Gonna let it grow out! Filled with some higher end pieces, Strawberry Shortcake SPS, Utter Chaos Zoas, Sunny D Zoas, Black Widow BTA, BlueBerry Ice Favia, White Deep Water SPS, etc. 4 1 Quote Link to comment
Matteo Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 Do you guys think I could add a 6th fish? Currently the Maroon, three azure, a yellow watchman. I was thinking maybe a royal gramma or purple dotty back? Or should I go even small like neon gobies? 1 Quote Link to comment
