My 125g Build Thread

[roadrashpaul]

I have been adding some stuff over the last few weeks so I thought it was time for an update. First I got some fish from a guy breaking down his setup. He gave me a 6-7" blue hippo, a lawnmower blenny, a coral beauty, a pair of clowns and a large sergeant major damsel. I gave the clowns away and took the damsel to the critter today. Today I bought a dragon goby from the critter. He is really cool and seems to be doing great when the blenny leaves him alone. Going to have to keep an eye on the blenny. I also got some frags from AirAngel. Also got my gfo reactor plumbed in and got the parts to get the ro/di hung on the wall sometime this week. Moving right along.

Lol... it was definitely not my idea. Here is the website for them where you can order Aqua-Mags LLC I will say that they are very brittle though. You have to be very careful with them because they will break apart easily. That's the only thing I don't like about them so far.

Congrats on the tank!

Thanks and sorry you couldn't keep it but I will take good care of it :wink:

Quick phone pic of tank since I haven't posted it in awhile. Also don't mind the plastic cup. I was waiting for my cynarina to finish eating while I took the pic and the lights had only been on for about 10 minutes so everything is not opened up fully.

Lookin good Paul!

digging the magnetic rocks!

I love mine.

 

[roadrashpaul]

Thanks Ryan.

Chris I am actually thinking about taking them out. Have yours started falling apart? Mine are starting to just crumble. I look at them wrong and a piece will fall off.

Really like the mag rocks! Very nice setup, I love the island look and coral beauties are very underrated imo.

Looks awesome! Great job on the tank.

Had to get the camera out earlier for something else so I decided to take a pic of a few corals.

Got this acan from airangel a few months ago. It is starting to take off and look good now. Anyone know the name of it?

Here is my war coral and some kind of mushrooms. The mushroom is only about 1/2 open and gets HUGE.

Here is the birds of paradise frag I got from aquarist78 about a month ago. Looking good and growing.

I am going to try to get some more tonight.

Few shots tonight. Kryptonite candy, blue candy, dragon goby and my mandarin. The mandarin is one tough little SOB to try and get a good picture of.

Love the dragon goby

 

[roadrashpaul]

Thanks guys. Josh I love him also except the fact that he drops sand on everything in the tank.

 

[bknapp]

Great shot of the Mandarin.
