    That's a great deal! Congrats. I like the scape as well. Lots of room for fish to swim :)

    Also, did you manage to get it up and running that fast? Underneath looks really clean

    Yeah! We moved it on Saturday/Sunday. And got the fish in on Wednesday night. I'm still working on the smaller details. But it's up and running!

    We went with two separate islands to allow the tangs to have swimming room and they seem quite happy. It was overloaded with rock before and space seemed limited for them. I only used about half of the rock. I have the other have in a tote for now.

    What madness that looks like my place on any given day. Lol. If my floor wasn't 100 years old I'd get a bigger tank but right now I'm pushing it with no sump and a 90.

    I can't even believe that's the same tank! The only thing missing is the kitchen sink. Looks awesome
