So it’s been about 5-6 years since we had a tank. Our last tank (220) crashed due to a bad batch of sailferts FWE. We lost everything except the fish.
here is our old tank

recently decided that it was time to try again
150 gal 6’ tank
55 gal sump
10 gal refugium
Jebao dc return
3 radion xr15 pro. Running modified ab+
Fish list
Naso tang
Vlamingi tang
Desjardini tang
Hippo tang
Clown tang
Mated pair diamond watchman gobies
Mated pair black storm clowns
Orchid dottyback
Midas blenny

the new tank is up and running
It’s going to be a mixed reef. Primarily sps and Zoas
First corals utter chaos
Atl Xmas mirabilis
Bubble gum digi
Rainbow BTA

New tank pics
I built and stained a custom hood to match the tank. The front has a piano hinge that allows me to easily work in the tank

If anyone is curious. Here is what happens when you lose everything in less than 24 hours

Looks like we dodged a bulley today. I made an order from live aquaria 1 box came yesterday. And everything was fine (watchman goby pair). The second box was stuck in Tennessee for 24 hrs. Green clown goby. Yellow clown goby. Fire shrimp and some hermits. All arrived ok and acclimated into the tank just fine
