I agree, and anyone who tells you they don't get bored with what they have at some point is lying. That's why I went salt recently and my interest peaked more in corals than actual fish (esp. seeing how I can only run a smaller setup at college), but I still have a ton of research to do in that department, it's like starting all over again haha but I am looking forward to it. I'm actually thinking about downsizing my tanks at home as well and concentrating more on planted and such, so by having less it would actually get me more into the hobby. Anyhow, good luck to you and I hope you decide to go with a planted tank, sure it may take dedication, but I think you will find it will pay off in the end, maybe just start off slow and keep building onto it as time goes on.

LOL-
That be true man......I do this acouple times a year-----I switch things up and it cathes my interest again....

My reef tank is my most enjoyable tank by far man-The life in one is unreal-The variety and color can not be touched.....
I'm gonna go into work today-So I will see about adding soem new stuff to it....

Even if I go with plants-It's going to be a low tech tank...that I do know...

what up akskirmish!!! nice tank man i started out w/ a 10gal had a betta and some tetras. lovely tank. here is mine it's coming along it's a 125 i picked up in big lake. i'm thinkin of doing an Ester Island theme well at least get some heads!!! it's going to be a ca/sa cichlid tank debating on buying 3 AC110 or splurge and get the FX5........is that over kill?


Never overkill on filtration man------

I had a betta-Moved it to a 40 gal brdr and the darn thing decided to die on me.....LOL

Thats a nice 125 gal man-Can I suggest a painted background though-Much nicer and doesn't allow for water to get behind-But that completely up to you man.....Good find in Big Lake...

Do you have an idea on the stocking yet? Where ya gonna get the stock from up here?

Nice tank AK, you should add a 55 gallon sump just cuz you can. I've always wanted to do that myself, giant sump on a tiny tank and stock it heavily, but if its working for you then keep doing what you're doing.

LOL-
I would if it was in a location that would allow me to do so...

We'll see how the filtration holds up after more gets added...
 
Nice 10g! With that big driftwood in there, you probably only have 5g of water:ROFL:
 
Def a 1 Gold Saum........gonna order a EBJD, and a red sev. bout 5-6 Clown loaches........mabe some bala sharks or Tinfoil barb. i had an oscar last time and i don't know if i want another.......if i do it will be veil tailed. what do you mean by painted backround? like paint the glass? yeah i really like the underwater sceam *sp* and i know i can't paint that great. i may buy some of the common fish in A-town never down here at Our Best Friends.....they aren't very good fish friends if you ask me. anyway i went in there yesterday to see if any of the fish that were sick are dead or whatever......all the girls in there are either unknowlegble or just plain rude. pretty sad when i have to drive 150mi to get good fish i can't even eat!! but anyway i figured if i get them all at once as juvies they should get along in that tank. BTW......you ever eat at Hula Hands on Mt View? BOMB FOOD!!!
