That's 150 mangroves to the left of the 165 now? Or do you have others in a different spot?

Man 300 mangroves in that tub. Epic! How much substrate/sand/mud/etc. in there for that? Hope it doesn't have to be moved soon.

I have to agree. I definately want more depth and less hight if I ever do another tank.

When I say "150" I should say "150 persay", I added 150 to start and those are the toughest one that out grew everything else.

Either we will be purchasing an additional tank to make into the mangrove house or I will be placing the tank directly inside of this.

Then we will add a few new pods and should be set .

The few inches on 2' really makes a difference IMO, it makes for great for top downs.

The beast has arrived!

Plan of attack:
-Tuesday- Electrician
-Wed- Plumbing
-Thursday- Fill & Salt Mix, plumb calcium reactor, install mangrove tank, install auto misters for mangroves.
-Friday- Transfer the established 110g to the main.
-Some time shortly after- Transfer my 165g to this tank.

Some photos:
This is the "mother is going to beat my arse face", good thing she doesn't get back from Jamaica until Saturday .
