JBJ 65 build

Just getting started
All stock equipment to start

Tank is fully cycled, home to 3 blue leg hermits and 2 damsels (that do nothing but hide ‍).

Great looking tank! I hope you have access to that corner to the right of the tank. You know Murphy .... if you don't, you will drop something - like an expensive controller back there and play heck trying to recover it!

It’ll take a ladder and a long stick but I’ll get it done. Unfortunately that was really the only spot in the house that work for anything larger than a cube.

I have dropped so many magnets behind my AIO tank that compasses no longer work in my house (unless I want to find my fish tank).

Looks like you are off to a great start!

Update!

I’ve hesitated to post for fear of backlash about my Petco fish. Yes I work there. Yes we bust our ***** in the aquatics dept. And yes my fish at home (all from my store) are thriving.
Are some stores horrible? Yes. Are some great? Yes. Should all stores be lumped into the same category? NO!
Moral of the story - don’t assume every store is terrible. Some of us work hard to learn and grow and keep our departments happy and healthy.
When I started there almost 2 years ago I knew ZERO about aquatics. And some days I still feel like that . But we’re all learning. I figured the best way to further my knowledge was to do it myself.

Post your petco fish. There are some petcos that do have dedicated employees such as your self in the aquatics department and there's nothing wrong with having a fish from petco. Do they all take pride in there jobs no but I've also been to lfs where I live and some of there tanks look horrible. Post and enjoy your tank.
