    lol yeah been there... ive re done my aquascape for my 29G like 20 times already.. with corals and fish..

    same goes for 150.. although this is fish only. for now. but a stupid chromis decided it would be fun to jump when i did the aquascape and hide 4 feet away from the tank :angry:

    but all in all.. its so much fun to build a tank.. :)

    Thanks Puffer I appreciate the compliment. Hopefully the tank will workout the way we are wanting.

    Im sure it will! Did you use any water from your 120g to start the cycle off? or going for a brand new start?

    Brand new start. I dont really think the water from an established tank really helps out. I believe it is the bacteria in the sand and the LR is where it would help speed up the cycle. Were not in a hurry right now. Weve got the 120 and a 29 running so we can take our time.

    Post a new build thread when you start setting it up. I love to see a tank come together.

    It's adorable! And what it may lack in terms of system stability it certainly makes up for with ease of setup!
