None right now I'm afraid.Any updates?
I wanna see that octopus tank!Figured it's time to start a build thread. My wife got the tank as a Christmas present back in 2012. It was an upgrade from a 55 gallon. At that time we had the 125 going and a biocube for our octopus. The current tank is a 75 gallon drilled tank by deep blue. I don't have any pics of when we first set it up due to pics not transferring from older generation phones. It's cool to see the tank on 3reef with all the frags that are colonies now. The tank has had its ups and downs of course and survived 3 moves. Started with sand and now it's bare bottom. Been using coral pro for salt since the tank has been set up.
Equipment list includes;
20 gallon long sump
Current eflux 1900gph return pump
SCA 303 skimmer
Ice cap 3k gyre
Reef octopus bio pellet reactor with reef interests NP reducing bio pellets
Aqua chill aquarium chiller
Current 48" Halide/T5 fixture with Hamilton 150watt DE 20k and ATI blue plus bulbs.
Fish include a purple tang, green/blue chromis, pair of mandarins which all those started from the beginning. We recently moved a blacker ice clownfish from my mom's nano due to the lightning maroon getting to mean.
Corals range from acropora, montipora, chalices, mushrooms, zoas and palys.

Thank you. Yea that was Spongodes. We sold the tank to buy a house. We have a 32g biocube (my build thread) but it's not fully set up yet. I was hoping around tax time but I don't know yet.Nice setup, love the massive colony of spongodes ? on the left, and congratulations on your family's new addition!
