    Nice build. That stand turned out awesome. I like the trim on your tank, never seen a tank like that before

    Thanks for the comments. As far as my tank goes I really want to do a mixed reef tank. For corals I'm thinking of starting with some lps and zoas and I know I want a watchman goby , clown and some others. I'm still deciding really because I still have a few months to go. The tank is from my lfs and the guy has them built for him. I really like the black trim on them. I also have a larger matching freshwater tank.

    sounds like a great plan! Love yellow watchman's, their grumpy little faces :) are you going to look at getting a companion pistol shrimp? What type of clowns are you thinking about? Love clowns too - I basically really like saltwater fish lol

    I want to get a pistol shrimp as well. I think it would be cool to watch. I have looked at my lfs and they never have pistol shrimp I might have to order them from somewhere. All the different clowns look cool but cant decide on one yet.
