Been busy this last couple of months setting up my first salt tank. it's a FOWLR set up.....finally got my first couple of fish in this last week; they're still kinda skittish but you'll get the idea.....

much, MUCH more to come if the wife has anything to do with it(the Sony Alpha sits next to this tank permanently recently......)
 
love triggers my favorite saltwater fish nice clown
 
very cool, love the clown one of my favs for sure
 
Nice!! Your triggers are looking hardcore already! That's a picasso not a humu right?

The live rock is looking really good too!

Stop flirting and just put out! :grinno:
 
More pics to come soon; there is a Fox-face Rabbitfish in there as well but as the newest tankmate it is very skittish and only comes out to feed.

I am working on a full-tank shot but since the tank is 6 foot long and is situated in a narrow hallway of which it takes up half the width it is challenging to say the least(w/cs are cramped too....)

Cohazard....the other Trigger(not the Clown) is a Bursa Trigger; I ordered a Picasso(same fish as a Huma Huma) but they sent me this guy; they are very similar patterning tho' and this little guy is by far the most couragous so far staying right out front of the tank while his other two tankmates hide in the rocks.

Planning on a Maroon Clown and either a Koran or Emperor Angel. And final fish will either be a Sohal or Clown Tang.....but taking it slow....Clown Triggs have a nasty rep but this guy so far hasn't had a go at any of his tankmates....however was not shy of biting the siphon hose while I was vacuuming the sand......:D
 
Oh haha good to know! Best of luck with the clown scarys! If it gets too aggro what will you replace it with? Niger? :D Thats my fav trigger.
 
noo... if it's gets too aggro, get rid of everything else! clowns rule. haha
interesting, what are the rest of the tank's dimensions?
