Tank Build! 120 Gallon Build

Better pic.

 

You get the scape done?

 

Wow somehow my stupid phone wasn't even showing the above pics. Looks good man.

 

Lol. Thanks. I am thinking chalice, favia, and leptos on right island. And left doing torch, hammers, and frog spawns up high and several others low on island.
Scolys, acans, acanthophyllia, lobos and wellsos in sand.

 

Small update. Cycle has been done. I am starting to add fish. I have a pink spot blend added little over a week ago. Also added a yellow corris wrasse. Next up probably around Friday my Picasso/Onyx Clown pair are next. Then a week later a Flame wrasse pair. Then my black tang and possibly a yellow tang. After that I am undecided. Maybe a leopard wrasse pair.

 

I also did some par testing and adjusted my lighting. I put 3 test corals in so we will see how it goes.

 

I'm finding the fish stocking to be one of the hardest decisions for my upgrade. In fact I was just about to write about it I have the current fish from the old tank and then there will be room for extra fish. It's just hard to figure out what those extra fish should be

 

Wrasses all wrasses!

 

I have most of the fish here in other tanks. I will have to pick up a couple extras. My problem is stocking order. Tangs before wrasse or after?

Gotta have a couple tangs too. Lol.

 

Wouldn't the tangs go last, so that they are the "boss"?

 

I suppose it would depend on the wrasse but makes sense. My tangs are fairly small but I better wait till last on those.

 

My Flame Wrasse pair I picked up a couple days ago. I have them in frag for observation. They eat like pigs. I will get better pics later.

 

Yeah. I have lost a couple fish to carpet surfing while I was away. All my tanks have screen tops now.

 

Next wrasse will be a pair of leopard wrasses.

 

I really want a leopard wrasse. Its on my list of fish to get for sure

 

I just happen to know a place that got some in friday.

 

Yeah I was eyeing one the last time I was in there. I think I might scrap the 40 breeder display idea and join the 120 club

 

Lol. You won't be disappointed. I am transferring a jam packed 40b into this 120. It don't take long to fill up a small tank.
