Well hello everyone,

I am very, very excited to say that I purchased a new aquarium this past Black Friday. I ended up going with an AquaForest OceanGuard 605, because on Bulk Reef Supply they were 40% off, so I saved $1,600! I went with the color white.

- The display portion of the tank is 114 gallons
- The sump is 46 gallons
- The total system volume is 160 gallons

So that's a big step up from my tiny 15g.

I'll keep you all updated on every step!!

That is fantastic! Looks like we will both be stepping into the new year with larger tanks! Is there a certain fish you are excited to have the space for now?
I am excited for some wrasses; I think they are stunning!

What tank are you getting? Do you have a build thread? I'd love to follow it!

I am currently setting up a 90gallon tank. I do have a build thread; you can get the link in my Profile thing on the left. :)

Wrasses are some of the ones I am looking into as well.

Wow, that was quick!
I know, that's what I thought! It's coming from Minnesota I believe so I thought for sure it would take awhile.
