I keep questioning my sanity

I wish I could get into a time machine and never see a fish and DEFINITELY DEFINITELY not coral.

Got my 120 gal sump in this week, and with the 150 gal. So yea I can post here.:artist: I feel like dropping some pictures....was planning for water on new years but I will postpone.

I don't know how people start a thread on a massive build and document it along the way, but mad props to those who do. Mine has been a year in the works.

Lol I feel ya...my wife sure wishes I never had the bug haha...I always get the "you bought MORE fish stuff?!"

yea but it tough pill to swallow that you rap up $$$ in the Ks and I don't even own a fish yet...I might get myself a gold fish for Christmas this year. and set up the qt tubs.

I know about the tang police, but is there a Mandarin police? if so I would like some advice.

My stock list for the display tank is going to be
mated pair of the blue stripped variety mandarin (could I get away with another mated pair of the green spotted variety?and keep them fat?)
3 fire fish
3 yellow headed jaw fish.
mated pair of bangi cardinals
mated pair of maroon clowns
lots of shrimp and snails

many years down the road I want to add a regal and flame angel.

I plan on loading the sump with live rock as humanly possible and that bucket in the third picture is going to be a surge device for the sump:bounce1:. I plan on feeding my sump more than my display tank. in the sump I plan on having serpent stars, brittle stars, urchins, snails, peppermint shrimp along with many bangi cardinals
