The Safety Net:
- With the coming of a basement, I can finally build something on a grander scale. I didn't want to go so big that I needed all new equipment, and wanted to end up with about 200g total water volume, with the flexibility to add more. I definitely want to have a ton of fish (more than most people would be comfortable with me having :lol2
- Want the fuge to be something worth looking at and a place to keep the more sensitive animals, filefish, seahorses, etc.
- Want to keep the tank as simple as possible, so not going crazy with reactors and such
- Water changes twice a month - planning on 40g each change
- Going to skip the filter socks (for now)
- All of my current fish are going to get QT'd before going into the new tank
- All new fish will be fully QT'd
