FishyFishy!'s 155 bowfront fishroom/closet build

[FishyFishy!]

I definitly agree with the optics. I will go without them and see what happens. They did also have the option for 80 degree optics as well. But when they are mounted i'll see how it looks. The last thing I want is a spotlight effect.

LED Light rack turned out like this:

Also got the egg crate done in the frag tank



Got a pic of the opposite side of the fish room. You can see the FOWLR, a temp water changing tank, the hospital/QT tank, and storage.



Unfortunately I had a crappy outbreak of ich last week (my fault for not quarantining a powder blue) and it has so far claimed a pajama cardinal, flame angel, and has my emperor angel not looking so hot in the QT.




On the up side, I finally got some decent pics of the Niger Trigger:

Yes I have! I feel like every extra minute of time I have goes into that room in some way, shape or form lol.

But the big part of this build is coming hopefully this weekend. I have to rip down the wall between the closets, drywall, tape and mud the walls, then move the 155 Gallon sump into position. Then I can start to plumb everything together and build the stand that will house the fuges and frag tank above the sump.

This is looking incredible, Mike! Neat to see my fish in their new home, and super-excited to see how the build is coming along.
Sorry about the ich outbreak, that stinks!

Thanks! Those Yellow Damsels of yours breed like rabbits! lol. Every time I look there is more eggs everywhere! I'll snap some pics tonight, they are all up the power cord on my Tunze powerhead.

Some pics of the Snowflake eel






This picture is hilarious.... in the bottom right corner you can see the eel attempting to bite the white fins of the late powder blue. Anything that looks like a big chunk of calamari he will get close to until he realizes that it isn't food. lol.
