4FordFamily's ~500G 10 Foot In-Wall Tank - Featuring @HotRocks

Nah... but his build is coming together so nicely it's hard to find things to give him a hard time about.

Of course, this is Reef2Reef, not Fowlr2Fowlr, so the harassment will continue. ;Troll

Well there are 4 or 5 cabbage corals, a little bit of star polyps, 4 Kenya tree, some anthelia, button polyp rock, and some bluegreen lame large polyp rock and other polyps.

Oh and some MONSTER aiptasia on that button polyp rock.

So it’s officially a reef, until my puffers eat it all.

Finally caught up! Whew! Such a fun read. Is the back painted with the irregular pattern? Or has it started to grow that already?

Quote of the day!!!

What's weird to me is I kept a porcupine puffer in a 180 full blown mixed reef and he bothered nothing.

He was hand fed and got nippy of you didn't pet him when your hand was in the tank. It was funny.

I will have to find that video.

It was setup elsewhere for about a year, so it’s from that

Hello,

Wow @4FordFamily and @HotRocks the tank looks amazing. I like how it matches the decor of where the tank sits. Will that be a standard living room aka kitchen also or like fun room. But hands down that is absolutely a work of art.

Thanks! It's been tons of work! It is now getting to the point of where it's all paying off. Tons of beautiful fish and something to look at finally!

It’s in the basement, my 180 reef separates my great room and kitchen. Thanks for the kind words!

Fish are all doing well!

Moving batch two of fish to observation tomorrow for about a week. This is by far the largest batch of fish, and most of the “rest”

Jason, Kyle.
Great work gentlemen glad to see everyone enjoying their new home! Can't wait to see the rest be added in and enjoying life hopefully everyone behaves!

We just moved the big lot of fish in to their 125 gallon observation tank, they’re officially finished being medicated. We will be watching them from 5-6 days.

Stay tuned!

Thanks!

Awesome! Can't wait!
You're welcome, New Hampshire has been watching! Lol I think @Fudsey and myself are the only active NH members and we both creep this thread hard.

excited to see the passer angel, one of my favorite fish

I think your soft corals will probably be ok even with the toothy predators. If so, it's a bonus for you! In my tanks, nothing has ever eaten the cabbage leathers, nor the ricordia mushrooms. Looking forward to seeing it in action.

My wife “helping” me build a table and chairs for next to the tank.
