Hey there, new to the boards
I'm 17 and have several fish and reptiles.
My pride and joy is my 180 Saltwater tank. which will hopefully be a 300 sometime soon. Think big but dream MONSTER right!?
i also joined because even though i used to think all freshwater fish were boring and ugly, i never realized how there are a few that are just awesome!
looking at paroon sharks and red tail catfish. i also really like aros.
but still my heart belongs to saltwater monsters.
In my 180 i am definitely overstocked but my big guys are all still babies so i have time to upgrade here is the stock and system rundown for those who care:
180 with 55 sump
2x 250 watt metal halides 14k xm bulbs
custom overflow leads to sump with fuge and 54 watt uv sterilizer
coralife 220 super skimmer
Return pump mag 9.5
Circulation: hydor koralia 4 with three more of them on the way.
150 lbs of live rock with a few leather and mushroom corals
Fish:
Brown banded bamboo shark7"
harlequin tusk 10"
maroon clown 5"
Panther grouper 5"
Harlequin sweet lips 3"
Naso tang 4"
