My friends, who are recently engaged, have come to an agreement which I find cute and hilarious.

He can set up a 150 gallon salt system up, when they move into their house... on the condition that every animal within that tank will be pink.

Strawberry crab is on the potential resident list.

She and I have started compiling a list of pink marine life, and plan to prune it down over time.

Baby pink is acceptable, aggressively pink is encouraged.

Hit me with your best pics! I'll start. :D

Can they add just a few more colors to the mix? All pink is a bit tough & IMO just wouldn't look as good. Adding a few more pastel colors, maybe baby blue/purple would look great. I've seen some pictures of this & everything just pops.

The basslet is purple. Anthias would go with the color scheme (also the sunburst anthias). More coral options are pink birdsnest, pink toned leathers., & plenty of no named pink chalices. I just picked up a jason fox scarlett fever stylo - http://www.jasonfoxsignaturecorals.com/product_p/sps-vh4a.htm (super fast grower).
 
Ooo, gorgeous!

Yeah, I plan to talk to her about a little variation, for the sake of visual appeal. :)
