Looking good Anthony.
Wow, has Felicia ever grown since I've seen her! She's such a cutie-pie.

Wow Anthony sorry to hear about the 225 but that 165 looks really good!

At a quick glance I thought the puffer had these booties on and some cheerleeder pom poms. "Rah Rah! Anthony's Tank! Rah-ah-ah! Ok feed me now."

She's standing on a chair, but yeah, she's grown a lot since last year. She's just under 3' tall & only 27 months old.

Only Anthony can get away with 4 yellow tangs and 2 purple tangs in one tank...... something about that house makes those fishes act differently. I think i will change Anthony's name to Fish_Whisperer
It looks good bud. thought you would have drilled the holes through the stand and put it flush. Nevertheless, it looks super nice with the blue background.

It would have been a tight fit & any work on the plumbing would have been a PITA. This way it may not be as clean looking, but far easier to work with or to modify.

Again, thanks for the tank.

Whoa man, sorry to hear about the 225 cracking. Did most of the livestock make it?

The new tank is off to a good start, Hopefully this one will be better luck!

Saved over 90-95% of the livestock. Would have been much worst if the tank had blown 36 hours earlier since nobody would have been home & we would have been out in Manning Park still. Then it would have been 300+g of sw on the floors, dead rock, dead fish, dead corals, ruined drywall, carpet & furniture, burnt out equipment & a royal stink throughout the place.

So yeah, could have been waaaaaay worse.

Wow and you even got the rock to look much like the last layout. That itself is a reefing miracle nicely done.

Your fish sure love the hand that feeds. They're all jammed into that end of the tank for photo ops lol.

So what happened to Chin's stuff he had in the tank? That sounds crazy (and super swell) to just up and empty a tank for a buddy...did he have a new tank ready for them?
