Default 36x36x24 CUBE

Here are some pics of the project build up 3 years ago.

My boyfriend and I made the stand ourselves


Tank was ordered from Aquarium Obsessed (AO), I think they closed last year.


That picture gives an idea of its size. ^_^


The stand is still not finished, but the switch has been done


Stand is done now


What it looks the first year :


The second year :


What it looks today :

That looks fantastic! Great choice of fish too! Is that Declivis well behaved? Any nipping?

Actually he really is not reef safe at all. lol

He ate all my zoas, killed 2 mini carpet anemones out of 5 and likes to nip at SPS like pocilopora and acropora.

But besides those things, he really is a nice and very interesting fish to observe. He's very lucky to be my favorite fish in the tank....

Very nice, but now the very serious question.
Who's the dead guy in the 77 gal, a former boyfriend maybe?
