Jor8888 - Nice looking nano.... the color on those clowns is really nice...

Kuramura - Looks like a very established tank with all that coraline... My only question would be putting a yellow tang into a 30 something gallon corner tank....

Broke - nice tank.... It looks huge, is it a 240 ??? Im guessing 8 feet long by the pictures....

Ieatchinese and poopsko - both tanks look great... can either of you give a quick stocking list ??? Im trying to get ideas for my 180 that im starting to set up...

Anyone else i missed.... All good looking tanks... Ive seen a few of them in person, its sometimes hard to do the tanks justice in pictures...

What's in the tank

The photo below identifies most of the corals that are in the tank. In addition to these, there are blue, red and green mushrooms, a few other corals like a superman and a pink milli.

As far as fish and things that actually move:

Blonde Naso Tang (Chuck)
Soho Tang (Sam)
Yellow Tang (Lah-Bee....means crayon in chinese)
Hipatus Tang (Lolipop)
Blue Devil Damsel (Midnight)
Three Strip Damsel (Sarge)
2 Oscillaris Clown fish (Laurel and Hardy)
Fairy Wrasse (Tinker)
Six Line Wrasse (Clef)
Flame Angel (Flame)
Mandarin Dragonet (Eragon)
Marine Beta (no name)
Diamond Goby (Gravel)
2 Skunk Shrimp
2 Fire Shrimp
2 clams
2 sea slugs (black in color)


I have plumbed this tank (a 120 gallon long (60") over to the other side of my basement (the wet side). There you would find a 100 gallon sump (with about 40 gallons in it. A 40 gallon breeder configured as a refugium (containing: 2 pepermint shrimp, diamond goby, dragon wrasse (Draco) and another black sea cucumber). The Fuge has a 5 inch deep sand bed.

Also, I have a 75 gallon Oceanic FOLR tank on the wet side. In this tank there are two gigantea carpet anemonies hosting two pairs of clowns.....one pair True Percs and the other a pair of Onyx (juvi's).

My 125, a bit neglectacated, but the poor picture quality helps hide that.
