after a year with a 90g, i custom made a new tank to diversify my ocean horizons.

here are some pics:

















specs (some are asian brands):

resun cl650 chiller
weipro venturi skimmer
2 closed loop system SCWD wavemaker

2 x 250w MH 14k fixture + 2 x VHO 40w
2 x AquaZ T5 + parabolic reflectors (more if need be)


im in my 5th cycling stage day. ive finished the aquascaping and am only using my old tek5 T5 lights twin fixture for now

thanks Smokey84, but ive seen nicer rigs here in RC.

i usually see people who own bigs tanks have big fish in theirs.


i upgraded to this 150g just so i could get more diversity and have 2-3 big fish as showfish. ive pre-ordered some of my livestock. currently for the list, im looking at:

- softies, lps, shrooms and a few acros
- LTA and/or green carpet anemone
- a giant clam and some derasas
- cukes, skunk shrimps and the lot

my fish list would consist of:
- 1 yellow tang
- 1 flame angel
- 1 chevron OR sailfin OR kole (which one wud be your choice?)
- 2 algae blennies
- 1 leopard wrasse
- 1 clown goby
- 1 other wrasse (longfin or velvet multicolor?)
- 1 swissguard basslet
- a shoal of (red stoplight cardinal OR black light cardinal)
- a pair of clownfish (percs or skunk)

any addition, or exclusion or a better replacemnt judging from the list and the tank setup i have?
