Jaredrthrbswimn, I don't require any more space inside the my aquarium then I have already have. My personal thoughts are that I will never run an aquarium without a Protein Skimmer. But I'm glad to see that it is working out for your aquarium.

Custom Wooden Cabinetry

I managed to squeeze in a little more time into the construction of my wooden cabinetry yesterday. So I completed the construction of the side pillers that would cover the corners of the aquarium. I always had a difficult time cleaning the clear silicone free of algae but over a period time it become extremely difficult. So these corners keep that out of sight. I ran out of wood so I wll be heading out to Home Depot for some more and hopefully I can get the canopy completed this weekend.

so what kind of fish do you plan on getting? or are you just going to keep it a coral only tank?

Puffer Chick, I'm definitely look to place fish inside the aquarium. I do have an ORA Ocellaris Clownfish swimming around currently and I'm definitely searching for a Starry Blenny. But I'm concentrating currently on the actual setup before I start stocking.

Since I have not completed the Custom Wooden Cabinetry for the aquarium I have been having a bit of an algae issue since my aquarium is positioned right in front of a bedroom window. So I thought that this issue required a very particular resolution. So I went to a House of Fins in Greenwich, Connecticut and purchased a Starry Blenny (Salarias Ramosus) to address the aglae issue and provide some company to my lonely Ocellaris Clownfish (Amphiprion Ocellaris). Unfortunately he is underweight and on the smaller side since he was housed in an aquarium that contains no live rock with algae for him to graze on. I'm hoping that his new home will provide him a more then adequate amount of food. He was drip acclimate to my aquarium for a period of over 2 hours. He is a bit shy and has taken refuge within the rocks. Hopefully in the next few days his shyness will wear off.

TheReefDaVinci, you seem suspiciously like a Jasonanatal, who coincidentally is also from Throggs Neck in New York, and also talks, replies, and updates, exactly like you do. He had a 120 gallon and sold everything. He was also building an aquarium completely from scratch. Interesting.

ZachB, that is actually an old name. I closed my accounts because I had a little case of identitiy theft and thought I would start with something more safer and more fitting.

Acemow, thank you for the compliments on my aquarium.

 

This is the kind of thing that should be taken up via PM. Thank you.
