raptures 90g thread

next week working on the skin to match the stand. I know its a rough skeleton but at least they are mounted. built from aluminum took me about 3 hours in total I didn't have any plan on the build I just started and this was the end result.
 
They are actually 2 huge toadstools
I had had them for sale but no one seemed intrested. Ill just keep them until they dont fit any more. Or that would give me a reason to get a bigger tank
 
so i finally did it!!! after trying everything humanly possible to trap him.. even starved his little butt. tried the fish trap, coke bottle trick. random chasing with a net, so i finally tore my tank completely apart to get that dang squirrel fish out of there.even after all of the rock and coral was gone it still took me an hour of chasing with a net to get him out.


my new aquascape looks ok, not sure if im completely happy with it , i removed about 40 pounds of lace rock that was in as base, The remaining fish which he hasn't had the chance to kill are finally coming out of hiding and are now actually swimming around the tank this morning!

im so stoked, just have to come up with another $350 to replace the fish he murdered

had to go to work till 5pm have to make some saltwater, have my wife pick up some media for the reactor. after I get home I can install the auto top off and fire this puppy up. right now im running a power head to keep everything alive
 
the aquascaping will stay like this. I really like it. now to add a bunch of pretty sticks ,donations will be accepted :)
 
the 90 failed. broken down and replaced with this 125rr. after a full day of water transfer and making water. this is the end result I still need 1 more ai sol but 2 mounted really high and turned up to 100% seems like there is enough coverage temporarily

I saw your 90 gallon in person a few weeks ago looked amazing. your wife told me about the squirrel fish. I am glad you you finally got him out. cant believe that your 90 gallon failed. but man that 125 looks awesome. you have done allot of upgrades sense I saw it. thats going to be a awesome addition.
