July 2010

This tank was started mid July 2010 with a Pink tail trigger fish, 3 - 4 Bar Damsels, one Blue Tang, 2 clowns and and almost all eco rock. (oh how times have changed).

The Equipment was straight forward 180 tank, two FX5's, two inline heaters, 72" coralife PC and a HOB Turbofloater Skimmer

Nothing to fancy we just wanted to get the tank up and Running

We had just put down the new flooring in our basement and didnt even have the baseboards on yet when the tank was moved in. It was our intension to start the tank of on soft coral and a few interesting fish (some how we ended up with the most common fish possible, Blue tang, Clowns and the most frustrating fish know to man the 4 bar Damsel)










The tank was running for about 2 month before our HOB skimmer decided to dump about 3-5 Gallons of water on the floor. As with any tank mishap you can find a positive in anything, my positive, Time for an UPGRADE.
