125 - Took Forever But Here It is!

Love that candy cane

I know! These and the Cursed Candy Canes...

I'm also considering this guy for the frag tank I'm hoping to attach to the sump:

And this guy for the DT:

He's going the DT so the other one has to go in the other tank.

I can't wait to get more fish.

I can't wait to get more fish.

Yep! I'm going to need a lot more. I have 8 in the 75 but 5 of them are full grown small. The 125 is going to need at least 3 clowns plus more green Chromis, another tang, and some sand sifter Goby.

+1 to this.. I am already researching possible new additions to my 135! I think the first will be a Coral Banded Shrimp..

After that, a Mandarin Goby is a must have. That one will have to wait till I get a good pod population going.

Running how many Vipars? 165 or 300?

Yep a LOT more!!

I have 16 fish in my 55. 3 tangs, 2 chromis, 2 lemon damsels, 2 black cap damsels, orchid dottyback, 2 clowns, 3 pajama cardinals, and a talbot's damsel.

The FIRST new addition to the new tank will be the Royal Gramma from the 32. I'm gonna tear than tank down once the new one is up. I am just tired of fighting that stupid little tank. The issues I have with it outweigh the enjoyment I get from it. I will probably turn it into a QT tank.

2 300s at 14"

I'm going to probably have 5 Chromis, I have 1 pajama and 2 Bangaii, my Tomini Tang, an Algae Blenny, my Hector's Goby, and a Green Clown Goby. My clown will probably be going in the frag sump and three new clowns will be in the DT. I'm getting a minimum of 1 more tang - probably 2, at least 1 shrimp/Goby combo - probably 2 or 3, the Blue Streak Cleaner goby, a wrasse, maybe a couple of Anthias. I'm also planning on a sand sifting Goby of some sort. Beyond that I'll probably get a dottyback and go from there!

I love how different we all are!

I am not really big on Gobies. I have a watchman goby (thanks for reminding me) that will go into the new tank that is in the 32 now. The Royal Gramma in that tank will also go into the new one.. the 2 yellow tail blue damsels will go in the 180 and ALL of the corals I will donate to the LFS. I simply don't want to introduce any more of the algae issues I have with that tank into the new build.

I might save one of them actually. It is a unique piece that I really like. Otherwise the corals in that tank are the overload from the 55. Nothing I cant bear to part with. OH! I will also save the BTA that's in there as well.

I love gobies and blennies! Actually, when it comes to fish on the freshwater side loaches are some of my favorites as well!

Just had a par meter on my 125 with viparspectras over it. Quite suprising

I am seriously thinking about viparspectras also. They are the frontrunner right now. If money weren't an object I'd get noopsyches. What were the par ratings?

Of all the fish I've had the tail spot blenny was my favorite. His name was Steve Buschemi. Had a red scooter blenny that was pretty awesome. His name was Cooter from the ducks of hazard.
