After many months of research and a month of setting up the tank. Here are the first fish to live in the tank, a pair of clowns!

Really like your rockscape, especially that cave in the middle.

Thanks! It took about two weeks of late night gluing after putting the kids to bed. But I like how it came out with the rocks I had on hand.

Got some hammers and torches, along with a Tail Spot Blenny.

I love the Blade. I am borrowing a PAR meter soon. I can report back on the results. That is the true test lol. One con for me is the mounting solution I’m using. I wish I got the arm that mounts to the back of tank or light that does that. I hate taking it off with the lid cover.

Sad update. I’ve been battling Ich. All my fish are in QT and will post an update after my tank goes fallow. Lesson learned.
