HI - great tank - can I just offer a word of warning? I had a purple firefish in a 29 gal bio cube and it kept jumping over the back divide into the filter and damaging its fins terribly...in the end I took it back to the shop....but since then I have actually cut a strip of net and clamped it in the hatch at the back and draped it into the tank so that fish can't jump over....it might be worth considering this if you get a firefish or any other lively swimmers who are prone to jumping.

More pics of the tank. Pretty sure I have all the fish and critters that are going to go in it now. Added a Sleeper Banded Goby, Stripped Blenny, Skunk Cleaner Shrimp, and a Pappermint Shrimp. Also was given an anemone, I am unsure what kind it is. The clownfish has shown no intrest in it but the cleaner shrimp loves it.

Out of curiosity, if these fish were to breed would there be some black and some orange?

Thanks again =)

About them breeding... I really don't know how that will go. Not sure if they will and if they do how the babie will turn out. I deffently post pics if it does happen

This has become so addicting. I'm a stay at home mom/ college student now soo have tons of time at home to care for them. The boyfriend and I are talking about getting a 200g SW tank. There's so many beautiful fish and coral and things it would be nice to have a huge tank to give them plenty of room. Plus my two year old LOVES the tanks we have now. When people come over he'll start telling them whats what in the tanks... He can even say anemone now lol. I think it helps him learn having something he loves so much.

MizRamzi: The tank was fully cycled before anything was added. There were some snails and crabs added after the tank was cycled that were living in the live rock. The live rock had the two cluster of coral I have on it and I gave it special attention and feeding to make sure it would live. About a week or so after that the clown pair was added. After another week I got more rock. Then I was asked to take a cardianal that was being eatten in a friends tank. I didn't plan on added that so soon but didn't want to see it die. About a week later the shrimp plus a few more snails were added (had alot of algea growth and the ones I had weren't keep up.) A few days later the anemone was given to me as a gift from my boyfriends mother. I didn't want to get one anywhere close to this soon. And I'm still always fretting over how it's doing. But from watching it move around and eat I think it is in good health. The last two fish were added at the same time, which is not ideal, But kind of had to work that way. They were ordered online because no place around here ever carried them. It was easier to pay for the shipping for them both together. They were put in a QT tank before hitting the main one.

So yes, some critters in my tank were added a little more quickly then I would have liked. But knowing that I gave special care to water changes, checking stats of the tank, and do have a qt tank. They all get a very good diet of frozen and live foods. My corals have spread, become more colorful, and grown bigger since I've had them so I must being doing okay. I think having the anemone in the tank this soon is about the only REAL questionable thing I have done.

None of my fish have had any diease or died.

And if you have concerns about the things I have done you could ask me, as you see I'd be happy to try and explain, instead of posting asking others why they aren't critizing me.

UPDATE Pics

Got more rock and redid the tank some. Made it so they had more caves n stuff to play in.

Also found my Blenny sleeping in odd places. Some pics of it in it's new bed lol.

And my snails are growing mushrooms now!! I have mushrooms spreading so much I've been giving them away. But thought this was funny. It's been on that snail for atleast a week now.

Great lookin' tank, I love the picture of the snail with the mushroom on him.
To be honest I don't know if I would be facinated or upset if I saw an anemone eat one of my huge snails lol.

I was a little upset about the snail but it was neat to see. I got two more snails to replace that one and we're upping the anemone's food a bit. Hopefully he won't ever get ahold of a fish.
