Mermaid Stand

[Tradewinds]

can you show us a close up of the finished
stand please?

Let me know if you are looking for a different angle.

Here's some pictures after the hurricane came through:

Here is a carving for a door of the next themed stand I am working on:

This is very interesting and loving it. I just read the Victorian Aquarists adventures in marine fish keeping in Advanced Aquarist. Your build reminds me of some of the stands. Following along.

I'm humbled to say the least, glad you like it.

I hope to have it salty this week.

Got water in it!

(Disregard the heater in the corner, I need to get a shorter one for the sump.)

Honestly, I would pay an obscene amount of money for that stand. I LOVE mermaids. So that's seriously like my dreams stand.

Dandrews, thank you, I'm glad to hear that you like the stand.

I wish I could have found a mirrored image of the mermaid for the left side of the tank.

The tank has finished it's cycle and I plan to introduce a Diamond Goby later today or tomorrow.

I am leaning towards fairy wrasses, zoas, ricordeas, and cup coral in this tank. Does any one have suggestions for other cool fish if I don't go with wrasses?

FWs are def a good choice... they're colorful and have a great temperment.

awesome build! i think a blue dot jawfish would compliment this tank very well. they're such a personable fish.

It's alive:

Lubocks Fairy Wrasse
Solarensis Fairy Wrasse
Whip Fin Fairy Wrasse
Midas Blenny
Emerald Crabs (5)
Cleaner Shrimp (2)

I can't believe how fast the time has went by. Sadly, I have broke the tank down, as I am now traveling too much to maintain the tank.
