Well she finally said yes!!!!! My wife OKed the new tank. I ordered a
brand
new 125g tank, stand, glass top, and 2 twin bulb light strips, will be
ready
for pick up on SAT. Anyone want to help my carry it???? So this weekend I
moved my 90g to where I had a 29g and put the 29g in a new spot that I'm
not
sure is getting wife approval, time will tell.
I,m planning to use black substrate with rocks and slate for caves, maybe
a
few fake plants, and a background that fades from black bottom to a dark
blue top. I have my 20g tank set up like this (minus the plants), and it
looks awesome with the lights on. This is the current home of 2 Frontys, 2
very small Calvus, and a small Highfinned (sold as) plec, imagine there
delight when moved from a 20 to a 125. I plan on adding another Fronty and
another Calvus and (if I can locate) a couple of compessiceps (spelling?)
Set up will be filtered with a currently running sump (no need to cycle
),
and an AquaClear 110 or 500, (what ever they're calling it this month),
and
a couple of powerheads with sponges, and heated with 2 300 watt heaters (I
live in southern FL so heating is not a major problem). Thank to advise
from
people like NetMax, I run multiple filters on most of my tank, so starting
a
new tank is easy.
I will try to get some in progress pics up soon.
Thought, comment and suggestions always welcome, and sometimes needed.

This is so cool. I can pick up your happy vibes all the way up here at
the top end of the East Coast. The seagulls perched on the roof of my
neighbor's house are chatting about it - word travels fast.

Hmmm, and here I thought the only thing seagulls could say was "mine, mine,
mine" (Finding Nemo)
