My 29 reef
I know that my tank isnt good at all. Im getting there. Im only 14, and low on money. The bigger clown died a couple of days ago because the DIY rock screwed the PH.
Full tank The heart of the system Here is a short 1 min. video of my tank. Thanks for looking, have a great day. Tyler |

Hang out with some old fart locals.
I feel for you guys since this is such a money sucking hobby. Rock looks good and I'd never know it was DIY. SteveU

it sounds like your doing your HW although I would be a bit leary about one fish on your list the Pygmy Angel is not completly reef compatable, I know some people add them and no problems but some people have huge problems, being your so young and this is a huge investment for you I would hate for you to have the possible problems that can come with this fish, the Pygmy may nip at large-polyped stony corals like frogspawn, good luck, looks like a great start

Yea, I have thought over this many times. Im going to try him in the tank and if he isnt fine then fellow reefers would love him. Ive done lots of reaserch and know more good stories then bad. Ive done lots and lots of homework.

i really hope you're not going to get a bi-color Pseudochromis i have one now with my 2 clowns and he's basically put them into one corner and thats it..hes very aggresive so don't get one unless you're gonna have someone to bully him around..

why is your sump in a sump?
|
#16
|

|

That was just incase it overflows in power outages. Ive tested it and it dosent overflow but im just to lazy to take it apart to get it out.

Nobody has any questions or comments on my tank? I got rid of most of the algea.. it looks alot better. The sand and glass are clear, its just the rocks now.

Been a long time. Here are some updates.
We moved the tank into the basement from my room on the 2nd floor. We painted the background black. I orderd new fish from SWF.com |
