11F150's Reef Savvy Cube Build

[11f150]

Looks great Matt! I am stoked for you man. And I truly am looking forward to see how it will look in a few months. You blew me away with your skills with the last tank, especially being that small.

Got any livestock ideas or lists already made?

Thanks Chris...I really need to start figuring out what I want for fish. I really havent sat down and put a list together. For sure though Ill get a pair of clowns and a few chroms. Ill still have a while before I get any fish so Ill start thinking about it. have any suggestions on what would be a good fit for my size tank?

I would stick with smaller fish that dont like to jump, being that it's a rimless tank.

Start looking into anthias, a cool blenny is always nice. I would go with a Kole tang maybe too. It wont ever outgrow your tank.

Now that you have all this time to wait. Start making out your livestock lists and doing research on them. It will help and be torture at the same time. LOL!

Lol yeah. I starting making a list. Was going through some fish that I think I could house, at least for a while. Most of the listed fish are 90 gal or less according to what they were listed as on a few websites. I wont get all of these but they are ones Ill keep in mind.
