Default big move completed

Well did it today. Down sized from a 133 to a 90 gal. Only one casulty. Lost the flame angel. It hide in a plastic filter sleeve and wasnt found for a couple of hours. That sucked. But all seems to be doing well. Getting a digital camera this week so I can post some pics.

How come you decided to downsize?

Reason for the downsizing was. The 133 gall was on a cabinet that was 8 feet long. Tank being only 6 feet. Live in military housing and place is very small. The cabinet took up an entire wall. And it was a very ugly cabinet. I jerry rigged the canopy too many times. and that started looking like hell. The new tank, I built the cabinet and canopy and it fits perfectly in a corner at 45degree angle. It looks awesome cause its only 4 feet. and fits great in the corner. The large tank was just too ugly and too much room.
