Joe's 135 Build

Does anyone have any suggestions on what fish I should put in? I was also thinking of having the tank have 100% only green star polyps to add some color.

So always wanting the newest equipment I went ahead and picked up the new aquamaxx FC-180. The skimmer I had was perfectly fine. Did a great job but I felt like my water level was too high for the skimmer so it wouldn't perform to its full potential. Marine depot released this on Wednesday of last week and I liked the design. I can finally adjust the air intake plus I like the new cone shaped design. What also stands out to me is the new collection cup lid how it's like a half circle to help the gunk fall in the cup.

Added some more fish. Majestic angel, French angel, and a heniochus butterfly. Now the reason I got the butterfly was because the store I went to wanted $85 for the French, $120 for the majestic and $26 for the heniochus. The guy said he would give me 15% discount on all the fish I get if I get another fish. So I went with the heniochus. Figured it was cheaper to buy 3 fish than 2 alone so I ended up paying $72.25 for the French, $102 for the majestic and $22.10 for the heniochus. Not a bad buy if you ask me. And guess what I have 4 angels and not a single one has a problem with another or any other fish. All one happy family. For those who will comment and say let them grow and they'll shred each other apart I honestly don't mind getting rid of one in the future. For the most part the angels I chose are peaceful especially the flagfin and majestic and the queen can put up a good fight good thing it's not my favorite angels. And the French is my favorite so it will stay.

Can we get an update on the reactor? I'm debating the use of the accel aquatics led strip which are only 6' vs some Amazon lights that are 16'. Others have good growth with the Amazon lights but the quality of lights are hit and miss. And Marine Depot claims to be having good growth with the accel aquatics led strip lights which seems to be better quality.

It grows chaeto very well. I would rather go through marine depot and have it work for marine applications than amazon just in case something happens they will understand.
