so i finally got rid of the rest of my fish(neighborhood cats love me) and get to convert my FW to SW and work on getting a real reef tank set up. i know lot of people hate tall tanks but personally i like the looks better and thats all that matters ill just have to deal with the cons. its going to be a mixed reef mostly LPS and Softies since i really dont like all that many SPS least not enough to want a SPS dom tank. dont get me wrong theres some cool ones but i like action and movement :tongue:
my plan is to build a tall reef structure ,probably have to epoxy it to make it work, that runs down toward the front with lots of caves and places for fish to swim and places for corals. so any advice you pros have would be appreciated :wink: later on after the tank is estblished i will start building some type of canopy with leds.
i am also resealing the corners since the old silicone was peeling off and is white and looks like junk and sticks out about 1/2 inch. other than that i wont be doing to much modifications to the tank ill get some kind of overflow very soon like a CPR box or even a cheap PVC overflow. need to find a return pump first though.
heres a pic of the tank drained i did it wednesday and today should be filling it up to let it recycle going to add a black molly to help it and also they r good algae eaters. and i didnt really feed my fish to the cats i gave em to jay! :cry:
