That is the biggest f-ing skimmer I have ever seen (that was for a private tank)

I can't wait to see the completed set-up.

BTW.....I have space at my house for the bubble hockey

Update shot from tonight with a pair of 175MH Ushio 10ks on the tank. I really like these bulbs for a FOWLR system. Really brings out the colors of the fish. I also like the shadows the low wattage puts in the tank.

how much was that eel?

 

[chicken]

~$1000. I paid a premium as I have never seen an eel with these bright of colors. Most the Dragons I have seen are decent color, this guy is just so much brighter. I'll try and get some recent pics of him up soon.

im liking the shadows from the lights too. that is a cool look

 

[sixxer]

Awesome list of fish.

You have any better photos of the eel to share???

 

[Fliger]

You are really, really making me want to convert my new tank into a FOWLR tank. I love the corals, but boy do I love the fish. Couple quick questions -

What fish are you planning?

How much was that skimmer, and where are they available (I have a ER CS 12-2 Ext but I think I might need something bigger).

You're not planning on using any other mechanical filtration? Or only the LR & the Skimmer?

Are there ANY corals you can keep in a primarily fish tank?

Thanks!

David

Very nice. Can't wait to see the finished product.

One question- Just how do you safely capture a 20" eel?

Chicken is out of town this weekend, but when he gets back he should have some pics of the trenching in the back yard for his geothermal setup. I've been bugging him for a week to post something. You all just need to egg him on a bit.

 

[KJMiller]
