Any other dads out there that do this?

Thanks Ja-reefer. I had a hard time deciding between long and narrow like mine or tall like yours. I love the way they look. What are your plans for that one?

I would probably be doing the same thing. Nose pressed against the glass, looking at everything lol
Amazing tank!!

Thanks! She has two others in the basement! She loves them. She's now 6 months older and asks me "what's that" and points to so many fish. I have to dumb it down to "blue fish" "yellow fish" etc!

Thats cute. When ever we feed the fish together, my son always calls the fish like he does with our dogs. He says, "Come on, fish, come eat. Eat Nemo, eat!"

I had a few SPS in the tank, zoas, yumas, and a BTA.. then my heater went out a few months ago and i lost most of the coral. But its currently being primed for SPS dominant!

Ive always liked the look of a cube..

its an old pic from my first setup but my son sat there for 2 hours and watched a couple chromis swim. nothing else in the tank at that point. he loved it. and he still does. but now he helps me pick out coral.

I really like the rock work in that tank Dtackett! My son usually falls asleep after 20 min of watching my yellow tang graze around. (thats his favorite fish)

I know how that is! my little one cant talk very well yet so he usually just screams in excitement when we are watching the tank ahaha

A great sneaky way to buy livestock, is to bring the little ones with you, and tell your partner...." I really only went for food, but the kids loved this fish/ coral and insisted I buy it.... I just couldn't say no!"

My 2.5 yo daughter loves the tank. It's "daddy's tank", but "her fish" is in it. The tank is in my office and a few times we've noticed it being a little too quiet and I go looking to see what she's doing. She's usually in my big chair that she's pushed over to the tank and she's just watching our clownfish. Every morning before she leaves for school with my wife she comes and sits on my lap and stares at the tank with me. Mommy isn't allowed in the office then, daughter's rules, not mine :)
