so as if my fish room wasn't full enough I've decided to keep a beautiful " all glass aquarium" 92g corner bow front tank.

It has roughly 75lbs of liverock in it covered in mushrooms. Will be adding more

Current livestock is a 14" zebra eel and a srg maj damsel

Wish list is- Aussie harlequin tusk fish,
A trigger ( not sure what kind yet), peacock puffer, raccoon butterfly, and something else rare or interesting. Maybe a moorish idol, but ya, big maybe , will have to do alot of research on them.

And of course I will be gettin them all small, and when they out grow the tank re home them so nobody get snippy with me

The equipment is;
3 bulb t5 odyessa light
Built in overflow with 1.5" drain and 3/4" return. 20g sump with refugium.
Mag 12 return
Coralife 65 skimmer, will up grade when I get more stock.
And 3 koralias for movement in the tank.

Love the idea. Get a cool trigger, that's the first thing I want when I get a fowlr

ya im thinking picasso but not set on that yet
[/quote]if you want a mean trigger get an undulated trigger. I would recommend adding it last or it will be the last living fish added

Nice looking zebra.

Sounds like you are building my old tank from many years ago...

Clown trigger, Harlequin tusk, three Moorish Idols, Emperor Angel, Cuban Hogfish, Black edge Moray.

It was amazing to watch....I miss those fish  :'(

I just added a tiny Koran angel, courtesy of Reefin!
Spent the last 2 hours catching the srg maj damsel who apparently decided he didn't like the little angel , finally got him but had to redo the entire aquascape.

Good job Brandon, you're going to have fun with this one ! I love the Emporor Angels too, they certainly are a strikingly marked fish and I think they have quite a personality too.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of this build as it goes !

Well angel is doing well, eating flakes like a pig :)

Eel has the most awesome personality I've ever seen in an eel, I play with him when I feed him, I tightly squeeze a piece of table shrimp in tweezers and he'll attack it, he figure out a sweet technic that basically is a barrel roll and twists of a piece of shrimp.

No new additions yet to speak of, id rather wait and get exactly what I'm looking for as opposed to just trying to fill space up

Angels finally eating NLS YAY!  ;D

on another good note, i went to the Bigs Als in Brampton,
some interesting fish they had there... clown trigger for 299$ kinda blew me away though...

i had a Raccoon butterfly on my wish list and they happened to have a nice small one, but the gf decided she liked
the saddle back butterfly instead, so thats who i brought home :)

just as nice looking to be honest :)
