How is the CBB doing? Did you move it from the other tank or is it a recent acquisition? I really need a Yellow Tang in my life....

Had him for a little over a year. He’s great. Keeps the tank free of aiptasia. You can tell when he gets a baby one. It’s cool to watch

Everyone needs a yellow tang. Especially a pre ban Hawaiian.

It was my store. Opened it literallly a couple weeks before the covid scare and it killed it.

The shark pool was 8 foot across and 26” deep ran it at roughly 600 gallons and 300 gallons of filter. 2 bamboo cats and three hilleri rays. And a freaking huge blonde naso about 16” long with streamers.

I got the light rack built today. Gotta wait for the boss to get home since I’m not allowed on a ladder without supervision.

I did something a little special for it.

We had company show up Sunday so I had little time to do anything else.

I am doing some post processing on RAW photos and it's a learning curve for sure.

A thousand pardons.

You'll get 1/2 a pardon and like it.

I really wish I had picked a darker blue for the inset. But it’s growing on me.

It looks good in the pic. I like it. Is it a lighter blue under whites?

yes. It was a divider out of a fijicube sump that I no longer have. For some reason they shipped two with it.

The good thing about the canopy is, if I decide to change it, I can always cut a new one. That one had 8 minutes of cut time in it and took another 15-20 to glue together. Plus I have a bit of white 3mm laying around that was overrun from an order and some sapphire from an order in the cutoff bin.


This is what the sapphire looks like:

I was turning a 125 into a sump for a new store. Which, BTW, is having their first Anniversary next weekend.

BTW, notice the cassette tape in the second pic? It actually works and I have a working tape deck going in the truck. lol

You could also make a pair of granny glasses, using that sapphire, and wear them when toolin' around in the truck with the stereo crankin' tunes from your cassette deck.
