Taqpol's 220 gallon custom Miracles tank!

Alex!!
Love the stand! Fantastic work. The slip-on panel design is very innovative.
It came out very nice...and the pride of DIY is, well, you know! :)
 
Wow nice, did you get it at down under?
Nope, Reefkeeper's Aquarium. A truly stand up store with the most amazing fish assortment I've ever seen.

Thanks, ans thank you for the inspiration! The pictures actually hide a lot of the little flaws, DIY can be nice but for something like wood finishing that I am really bad at I'm probably going to get professionally done next time.
 
I am sure you miss Kevin and Barbie stores because now they are having ORA orders every week. The price for corals is lower than liveaquaria like blue hawkin's for $50.
Their ORA orders were amazing. Kevin said he had the ability to ship corals down here, and I might take him up on that offer for some of his huge "frags".
 
Very cool! Must be something in the air in your tank causing all that "funny business" to be going on. :D
Haha, everything I've read about marine breeding says that the only trick involves feeding a lot of food. If your critters are well fed, the rest will fall into place naturally. Its cool watching their interactions, and if I can help it all fish I get in the future I'm going to try and pair up.

Speaking of funny business, I hope to see these guys start doing "the dance" soon! Pair of tailspot blennies.

So I have a fair amount of pictures left to post, but for bandwidth reasons i don't want to post any more on this page. Think you guys could get me another four posts so i can post these guys at the top of page 15?
 
Great pics man and the tank is really starting to take shape. Hopefully, I will be up and running again with a new tank before the end of this year.

(Me crosses fingers) :beer:

Speaking of "funny business", I think this lone anthias has a certain attraction to one of my chalk bass. Its really funny to see the tiny little anthias defend my ostracized, half-blind chalk bass from the other chalk bass who does not like it anymore.

im curious.. how much did your tank run you?? with shipping.
For anyone else thats interested in this question, shipping can make a huge difference in the total price. I would go ahead and just contact Miracles directly, they are very easy to work with!

I am always impressed by these guys' customer service! I ordered this stuff YESTERDAY and it arrived on my door step today with just the standard Fedex Priority delivery. I also got the fancy little thing pictured above!

More updates to come, probably later tonight.
