RT's 120G build (1 Viewer)

You need something to prop the cords on so they dont hang to the floor. I used to super glue 3m hook to the top of the tank and rest the cords through there.

this post is from my iPhone, so pardon the poor typing. Butttttttttttttt, the tank has been filling for about 30 hours now. So excited to finally get this thing rolling. I bought the tank in DECEMBER, and multiple equipments before then. However, I REALLY do not trust this floor...at all. I have never seen an incident where a tank fell through the floor, but it's times like this I LOVE INSURANCE. Anyway, here's my fish list

-tiny purple tang
-bigger powder brown tang
-flame tomini tang
by adding 3 different subspecies of tang, I hope to reduce aggression.
-2 ocellaris
-a diamond goby
-a yellow watchman, tiger shrimp pair
-a pair of Dracula gobies
-some smaller gobies, ie clown, highfin, sharknose.
-a trio of wrasse, non flasher or fairy variety
-and whatever else I eventually add.

Can't complain about that start :beerchug: can't wait to see what that red chalice looks like when it gets a little bigger, i might need a chunk of that to add a little color to my sand bed:biggthumpup:

edit: just looked at FTS a little closer, it's already a decent size!!!
 
Tank is looking awesome! You have some very nice pieces for your coral collections already! :beerchug:

Indeed. I am so stoked to see your tank develop...i love rimless...im already planning my next build lol. Its gonna be a rimless 180+. But AFTER i graduate college.
 
Stopped by and picked up a couple tanks from Ryan and saw this set up. I was very impressed with the set up - looks awesome in person and the aqua scaping rocks!!!

Thanks Ryan - dont be a stranger now ya hear? ;)
