Wife Said I can get Another Tank

[vanpire]

After doing all my chores, I can now begin to a tank build. Inspired by @jporter17, I will set up a similar tank. I will do a tank build thread soon. Tank dimensions will be 48” x 30” x 20”. This is similar to the same dimensions a Jeff’s tank. This is the tank. Not much to look at now, but give me a few months.

Nice my wife recently gave the greenlight on new DT build as well. But has now completely commandeered the whole entire deal.
Now hers will be in total competition with mine because she can do it better lol. Which she can all bs aside.
Going to be interesting to see how this plays out

So your wife is going to do the build? That would be cool. I wish my wife was that involved.

Lol no sorry for any confusion here. It's become a sort of honey do thing. I'll be doing all the building and hard work. She will be making me build it.
I am lucky she has fallen in love with the hobby. Watches and maintains things, takes videos, named all the fish, hermit crabs and coral, has begun stocking the system with her own coral now.
Be careful what you ask for lol.

Love the tank but not sure about your choice of stand. It’s cool that it has wheels, but I imagine you’d have to have a pretty shallow custom sump. Looking forward to the build thread. JP

I like the dimensions. Take your time and build an aqua scape to rival any out there. Gonna be an awesome build.

I finally started a build thread on the tank build.

Build Thread - Quality Rimless 120 Gallon Build on a $2,500 budget

I have really loved and admired the work and attention to detail of the tanks built by some local reefers like @Sisterlimonpot, @jporter17, @SawCJack00 and others. I have also seen so many gorgeous tank builds here on R2R that I would love to emulate. This current build will be my second tank...

I had to do a lot of "honey dos" before even starting work on the tank, and she wants some specific types of fish in the tank. She wants a couple of clown fish and a "dory". It is fine because I love clown fish and blue tangs. She always want a bit of Xenia.

If you need any xenia, let us know Van. Amber is always trimming it back in here SPS nano tank.

 

[vanpire]

Thanx. I have Xenia but good to know there is a second source.
