Sounds very cool. What species do you have now? I think the addition of triggers will be very cool. They are so fun to have and watch. But stay clear of the undulated and clown triggers!

Any triggers on particular you have in mind?

I have a bunch of tangs- yellow, naso, purple, blue. Got a bunch of small schooling fish. Blue Angel - waiting on a french angel. dogface and porpucline puffer. I have two niger triggers

I seriously want a tiny baby clown trigger. I know they are brutal when bigger but my bigger tank may be fine for them. Not yet sure on this.

I have two niger triggers so far. Debating on others - like I mentioned above, maybe a clown. Will see.

Been watching your build since I left for Korea a couple years ago! Since have moved from Texas to Indiana and unfortunately don't have the time for a tank until retirement (18 months to go!) Have stayed off RC because it inspires me...lol. Got back on and it has been a pleasure to read all the posts! Keep on keeping on! Great Tank!

Hi Socal
Glad to see you updating the thread.
Do you have a Goldflake angel in your tank? My favourite fish

Are you able to post updated pictures of your DT and sump, interested to see now they are much more mature.
I was wondering so have to ask, if you were to sell and move on, is your current tank included in the sale...

Good luck with retirement. Hope you get the opportunity to build a great tank!

I know right? Will see how it goes. Right now I have two niger triggers. A clown would be a great addition.

No glodflake angel but might have to check it out. I'll post photos but not much has changed. I'm actually going to be rewiring everything and cleaning it all up. Things have gotten a bit messy and I don't like messy.

If and when we sell the house, I will take nothing with me. I will include it with the sale of the house and start from scratch. So many things I've learned and will do it better next time. Love my tank but it would cost me more to pull everything out instead of just Leaving and starting from scratch.

The little clown triggers would be cool for a little while but they grow fast and will definitely pick off its tank mates.

platypusklr · 01/11/2017, 08:17 PM

How is the tank coming along? Those of us who live through your tank progress are missing you...lol.

Socaltoaz · 01/17/2017, 12:42 PM

Sorry guys- have been busy. Will try to get some new tank shots in soon. Have been distracted with another project. Will post pics of that too. Picking up today after having clear bra and the roof wrapped. ��

Socaltoaz · 02/20/2017, 09:15 AM

I'm cleaning up and consolidating if any locals need some supplies/equipment. I have the following for sale:

Reef Genesis water change system. Works great but I'm using just a pump now
Bucket of bulk reef supply soda ash
5 gallon jug of alkilinty all mixed up
Bucket of bulk reef supply calcium chloride
Apex dosing containers
Sea side aquatics dosing containers

As mentioned I'm not running a reef- fish only so just trying to clean up. Make me an offer and come by a and pick up. I'm not shipping so local pick up only please.

Pm me

Thx

Socaltoaz · 02/20/2017, 09:17 AM

I've also got a 5 gallon jug of calcium mixed up. Come grab it.

SPotter · 02/20/2017, 09:25 AM

No reef what happened???? This does open a new door for some gorgeous fish!

Socaltoaz · 02/20/2017, 09:41 AM

With my travel schedule I did not have the energy to maintain a reef. Besides family wanted too many food fish that would not have worked with a reef. Very happy with my Fowler

That's what I assumed by wrapping the top. A must for lighter color 458's for example.

It's a 488. Not 458.

OzATL · 02/22/2017, 10:38 PM

Even better. Neighbor took delivery of a yellow one last month.
