Finally got my camera back. New T5 bulbs went in today to give it a more blue/white look as opposed to the yellow look it had previously. Also added a few inhabitants, the total stock is now up to:

2 Ocellaris Clownfish
1 green chromis (more to come, he was the last one in the store)
1 Yellow Headed Jawfish
1 Orange Firefish
2 Peppermint shrimp and a host of crabs/snails

Corals:
2 Ricordea Mushrooms
small colony of purple zoanthids
Green Star Polyp
Kenyan Tree Coral
2 frags of pulsing xenia

Fish sure are hard to photograph...

Soz That I Am Spamming You With Q's But Its Just Coz I Am So Interested In YOUR Tank.

How Much Water Does That Tank Hold


From Matt

au01st

It's a 75 gallon with a 20 gallon sump, and it has about 90 gallons of water circulating.

The coral is a Ricordea Mushroom. Here is a picture of it fluorescing under the actinics. Since I added the new bulbs, it is even brighter than this picture.

Fish:
2 Ocellaris Clownfish (Abbott and Costello)
3 Blue/Green Chromis (3 Amigos)

1 Yellow Headed Jawfish (Groucho) (he looks like a grouch, always frowning, and he has a goatee)

1 Flame Angelfish (Shug, for Shug Jordan, legendary coach at AU)

Matt

What a beautiful tank!!

I love all of the inhabitants you have, my dad has a 35G corner which has the same kind of theme as yours .

If i were you i would top it off with a sailfin tang

Enter it into aquarium of the month

au01st

Sailfins need larger, 100gallon minimum, tanks. The only Tangs I would consider are a tomini tang or a Powder Brown Tang. I'm waiting on a few more pieces of rock to get here to see how much swimming space will be available, when it's all said and done, before I get a fish that needs lots of room.
