130G diary with pic's

[The Fish Finder]

I upgraded my sw tank from a 55G to a 130G i moved the sand and rock from the smaller tank to this one. As well as the fish. Also brought some new fish today. Not all fish are out some are still hiding. some quick pic's before i turn off the lights

So you know this tank is still being worked on. It will be about 4 week's I believe that ill almost done. I have 200lbs of live rock coming this weekend (curd). I will start puting soft coral's in by the folowing weekend.

i assume ur putting softies in for the morish idle to eat?

i think it's time for a new background - no offense - but a black or dark blue background would add a more natural look to the tank.

Yes Indeed. Right when I looked at it I thought it was a FW tank.

Nice fish.

3' long + 2' wide + 3' high
36x24x36

I love my foxeface's those 4 school togeather all around the tank.

My 68 gallon is 2 feet deep, and I think it's a pain in the neck to aquascape and clean. I can't imagine how hard a 3 feet deep tank would be! I like your foxfaces too. Not trying to go all Tang Police on you but, don't you think your overstocking it a little?

I caught them on long island. Sorry i can't say the spot or else everyone from here that live's on long island will go there . Mine is out quite often as well. But i think that will change when i put in the 200LBS of live rock

Yes that is true. From what i am told once the water hit's 55F-60F the fish will die.
