Thors 450 Build Thread!!!!!!!

wow i love all the tangs, i used to have a small orangeshoulder then i had to give him away cuz he got to big.

but your tank looks beautiul and the tangs are amazing.
 
thanks murphysfish! As you can see I love tangs too!!! Good luck on your 280!!!!
She does seem like a charitable person!!!
 
yes I do. I run a humidafier in the living which helps, but fills up quite often. Still wouldn't trade any negatives for having the tank the living room. Its my church!! Afterwork bud light lime and my couch watching my tangs!!
Can't wait to see your thread terence when you start your tank!
 
how many tangs fo you have? they even look crouded in that 450 i cant believe ppl have some of the big ones in 55s.
 
Yeah i agree with that. I wish I had my tank in my family room wall. It would be really cool to chill watch tv and check out the fish. AS long as it is set up to not glare on the tv I cant think of a better spot for a tank.
 
Hey Thor, not that you have to justify anything to anyone but would you happen to have a video recorder to shoot a small video so that the skeptics can see how big a 450 is in reality as opposed to pictures? Ok, ok, I just want to see a video of those beauties in your tank :D
 
yeah I post something in photobucket. Thanks for support though tangwich. It is somewhat decieving because when I get close up to the tank they think it feeding time and its like summoning the clowns with a bell for food!! Its hard to see the depth the tank. Its 3 feet wide which helps out a lot.
mindtoy I have 13 total tangs. They have all been with me a minimum of almost 4 yrs now. A few of them almost 6yrs.
Thanks erics3000!! Love your tank also. wall seperaters are sweet! do you still have the white check?
 
Thanks thor32766.

I lost him a new copper band when we had fires in my area. I was out of power for a few days running the generator on and off. That is still a little sore spot for me. A few weeks ago I found a 4 inch Achiles and he has been doing fine in my tank. Not to agressive at all..
 
Just for fun: next time you have a party, get together line up the drinks next to your skimmer collection. See how long until someones tastes the skimmate.

Sorry bad joke but I couldn't pass it up.

Beautiful tank!

I have my 220g in my family room and am also worried about humidity.

What type of dehumidifier do you have?
 
yeah the smell might give it away first!!!! Thanks for the complament!!! Circuitcity had a promo of them, its a sunbeam 50 pint. Works great. They were 99.99 brand new!!!! They didnt last very long and since they were a promotinal item circuity city no longer carries them.
Not sure if it will work the same for you, but I had a 220 with a 75 gallon sump along with a 90 gallon tank and 20 gallon sump, before and didnt have any humidity problems.
Now that I have over 700 gallons in the living it was very apparent, but never had a problem with it before.

The orangeshoulder is one of my most passive fish. She has the best personality in the tank. She is feed nori, romaine, brocolli, vitamin packed shrimp. She is very very active though.
 
The auto top off is a JBJ and is working great. So happy I am no longer bringing the 5 gallon water jug back and forth!
