New tank! (40 breeder)

What kinna corals are you getting meg?! Your aquascape is huuuge thats so cool, id never be able to lift all that rock lol
 
Haha yes the rock is heavy!!! But worth it. I'm gonna go with a lot of zoas, obviously we both love zoas. We can do frag packs together! I'm gonna do some mushrooms, and of course some beautiful RBTA for my clowns, some millies, a montipora (purple I hope!) And just a bunch of other lps and sps, believe it or not you will begin to like sps! :)
 
Hey everyone!
Currently I'm a stuck in a boot and on crunches due to a fall at campus, I have been spending more time investigating the fish I really want since everything is kind of on a hold right now. I have come to some final decisions! View attachment 6262uploadfromtaptalk1378423857015.jpguploadfromtaptalk1378423868404.jpguploadfromtaptalk1378423880065.jpg

In addition to those I will also have to little snowflakes clowns that will be housed at spideybry's (love you for that) until my tank is ready!

Also I have fell in love with SPS, millies especially, montipora as well. Can't wait to fill my tank with beautiful livey creatures. uploadfromtaptalk1378424111568.jpg

Look into the blue stripe pipe fish, they will do much better in a reef tank. They are easy to pair as well. We love our yasha goby, they are also really easy to pair (look for the black spot on the pelvic fin, that is a male, the female does not have one). I lean towards the tang police side so I would not recommend a kole tang, but that is my opinion. When we had the 45 cube, we went for a lot of small nice fish. That is how we have always stocked our tanks, even our 205.
 
those seem to all be pretty good additions. i agree about the kole tang not being a good candidate for that tank. there are a lot of other good options though if you look around.

I agree, but maybe a small 1" Kole tang will be alright until they upgrade within a year.
 
This is only a temporary tank until my boyfriend and I get our 300 gallon tank later on in the year. The tang will be fine, I'm sick of always having the basic yellow tang. My boyfriend has had the kole tang and he was a great fish and responded fine to the size of his tank. He should be fine. Thanks for the advice though guys!

Its not that i dont like sps, I just dont really want to keep much of them. I might have one, maybe at most 3, and let kyle handle that stuff while I work on my zoas lol.

Ive been getting my frag packs on r2r theres been great deals out lately. Im trying not to buy too many zoas cause kyle says I wont have room..but ill make room..

Im excited to see it all set up !
 
Rocks look just like my old design...we cant be friends anymore

Jk but the design worked out greqt for me. Was just too much rock for my taste. Im a minimalistic guy. Less live rock the better. I think itll be great for the corals you plan to keep though. Maybe isolate zoas and such on one side and sps to the other. Good job so far guys

I don't think my rocks at really gonna look like yours. I like rocks, I like to watch things cover up the rocks. I'm excited to aquascape my tank!!! And thanks ky :)
 
Currently...I'm laid up with my foot and I was unable to go pick out my clowns :( however I trust the boyfriend and spideybry picked out the best ones for me! They will be currently staying with spideybry, until my tank is up and ready to go! Hopefully rock work tomorrow... the rock has been delivered today however it does need to be cleaned. I'll post the pictures my boy sent me of my babies :) uploadfromtaptalk1378519127193.jpguploadfromtaptalk1378519138290.jpguploadfromtaptalk1378519194636.jpg

Of course they don't do the clowns justice I'm sure, I can not wait to see them in person. But this injury has limited me to pictures! Thank God for this forum because I'm bored out of my mind!
 
Since we are sharing pics, here is my new pair :)
