A few photos of the tank

It’s been a while! Hope everyone is doing good!

Well, I finally did it, moved to the new house. Had to setup a new system and get everything plumbed. Took a full 2 days of nonstop work to get it all done and filled. It’s been a couple months now and wanted to share some photos. I finally cleaned the glass and thought it was looking nice.

I got him off DD and he’s been a eating machine since day one. The fish I can’t keep is a copperband. Max 6 months and they die on me everytime. I’ve prob had 14 over the years.

Thanks! I just added a few more anthias last night and a couple wrasses. I love all the movement I have. Think I’m around 50 fish now

If you decide to try again, I think the secret to my success with the copperband has been feeding PE brand mysis.

I agree with you, I feel like they have always gone after this. I have another in there right now and he’s nipping at the rocks. He will oil at some pe mysis and blood worms. Time will tell. I got the largest one I could this time
