i'm a happy camper. traded my psp for a 60 gallon setup

I have a 250 gallon reef.
One of the things that keeps me going.
Absolutely beautiful, and very hyptnotizing.
I can get lost for hours watching the pulsing Xenia.
My son's favorite are the Arrow Crabs.
I swear that I have more technology in the makings of that tank than the moon landers had.
Stay cool Boon.

i just bought a barred midas and another jag. i was drooling over a 265 gallon they have there. like 2,500 bones...

i could do some major damage with a tank that big

total stock now is 2 firemouths, 1 convict, 1 clown loach(did you know if a clown loach gets ick, it can never get it again?), 2 managuense's, 2 midas's, and 1 green terror.

i am keeping them all till they hit about 5 inches cause by then i should be able to tell which ones are the males.

i will get rid of both firemouths, 1 jag, and 1 midas....i already know which midas will go...going to keep the barred one.

once the tank is up for longer i will get a bristlenose or something....

my one jag and the green terror are bad ass.
------------------

this is the way you have to do it to figure out if you have a male or not.

i was eyeballing that 265 again but there is NO WAY that i can justify spending just under 2k on a tank.

we will have the money next year but i need to get a privacy fence....
i want that tank so bad it hurts though.....

i could do some serious, hard core damage with a 265.

i would have 1 of each of the parachromis, a pleco, and maybe even a pacu or two just for the hell of it...
of course i would need an odo as well

edit*
it was just over 2k at one store and just under 2k at the other....the 265 i mean

how bout a 2k gallon reef tank
www.atafish.com...



this is the closest i can find to what i have.....i have a 5 sided(pent) but it is 50 gallons....
www.petshoppingclub.com...

i always wind up with goofy tanks that are like out of 'print'...i have a 90 gallon that had the same footprint as a 55. only one i have ever seen like that.
it was very tall. this one i have now is very tall too.

i have pretty long arms and i can't really reach the bottom.
