Got this tank about a month ago, it used to be a reef tank. I had some issues converting the refugium into a fresh water filter, but its ready now. I just put the reds in a few days ago, and they are back to there old selves. For a few days they would not eat in front of me. Now they are even more aggresive than they were.:headbang2

Nice tank, You gonna continue adding to the aquascaping? Not a whole lot of hiding places.

Yeah, I got a few pieces of bog wood put in the other day. Also I have some wood soaking in the bath tub. I am trying to get the wood to sink and get water logged. I am not sure how long that will take, they have been soaking for at least 2 weeks. Hopefully they will be ready soon.

Yeah, definetly takes patiences...which i do not have. I was lucky that I ran into a store goin out of business on craigslist and went in and asked if i could buy their bogwood directly from their tank. They tried selling me their other stuff first but i was like nah, i didn't drive all the way over here to soak it myself. lol.

That tank looks a lot bigger then a 150 for some reason. Nice aquascaping!

I have multiple filters the one you can see in the picture is rated for 90 gallons. In addition to this filter There is also one rated for 70 and 30 plus there is a 70 gallon refugium. With the refugium there is media for BB to grow and two more bags of carbon. Adding the wood is just for aquascaping purposes. Hopefully it all comes together soon.
 
Looking good! Are you going to put a background on it? It would look great w/ a black background.
