So we have finally began the journey! We just purchased this awesome 90g tank and stand. We got the canopy too just in case we like the look but we’re thinking of keeping it off.

We’re about to make the decision on a sump and I’m thinking either Bashsea or Redflex by ProClear. Main criteria is space in the stand of course. I can fit something 18” deep front to back, but 14.5”fits between the posts of the stand so it allows me to save like 3.5” of usable space for everything else I will keep down there. (Suggestions are welcome lol)

But here is the tank and stand! More to come when we get everything else rolling!

Been doing research on what to stock in my tank early on and I've come up with this list to hopefully add some vibrance and life to the tank! This is a couple months out before I start adding things but I want to be prepared and well-informed. Let me know if there are any discrepancies or incompatibilities that I should know about.

Engineer Goby
Coral Beauty Angelfish
Bangai Cardinal
Claarkii or Ocellaris Clown
Pistol Shrimp and Watchman pair

I'm might do a couple of certain ones but I'm not sure yet on numbers.

And for corals:
Zoas
Kenya Tree
and Pulsing Xenia

I think this will start with lots of color and variety in addition to being good and hardy livestock to start with!
