Haha, my type of thread ;-)

Got into marine fish last year...

Bought a 55 gallon and learned the hard way what not to do...

Anyway I now have a 240 gallon tank being built with overflows, returns, custom 100 gal sump / fuge, etc...

Also turned the 55 and a 20 gallon tank into quarantine tanks.

My 240 should be back in early April, then I'll need to fill it up with RODI salt water and let the new 300 lbs of live rock cure for around 2 months and move all the live stock over.

BTW - Most expensive and frustrating hobby I've every picked up... but still worth it

Right now I have:

Skeletor Moray Eel


Black Ice Clownfish


Ocellaris Clownfish


Yellow Belly Regal Blue Tang


Niger Triggerfish


Yellow Tang


Two Neon Gobys


Yellow Tail Damsel



Once the 240 is up I'll be adding:

Crosshatch Triggerfish


Achilles Tang


Also a bunch of little crabs, snails, shrimp etc... they just clean up everything.

What really makes it worth it is all of the crazy coral you can put in the tank... that's where the real money is blown ;)
