A while back I posted about my tank at 6 months old and it drummed up a lot of attention. I thought I would update everyone :) I’m sorry these pics aren’t supreme, but you should be able to get the idea :) please enjoy my pride and joy, my mini ocean, the thing that keeps me sane. This tank is paid for 100% by myself and i am so incredibly proud of what it’s turned into. Lots of ups and downs but every second taught me a new lesson and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’ve also included the tank specs and more info below because I got lots of messages asking about everything last time! Enjoy!

Wow! Awesome tank - looks great and is coming along so well. And all self-financed has to be the icing on that cake! Great work - keep it up - and keep the updates coming.

great looking tank. I am 16, so kinda on the younger end here too. one thing that has saved me a lot of money and made me able to buy 80%+ of my corals and fish is store credit. selling frags on craigslist is another way to help finance purchases too!
