Magilla's 125

[Anonymous]

Here are some pics of my 125. Been re-booted since Oct 2013.

Crappy pic of the full tank:

Tank sits under stairs, and on top of the stairs to the basement. There's a mudroom / pantry behind the tank undergoing a re-build.

Tank is set up with a mountain of rock in each third. Middle third has a small island:

I have a rose anemone:

I have a cool green Monti cap that's going to wrap around this purple tort acro:

Nice tank. How long have you had the PBT? It looks like it is doing well.

Some nice green zoos growing on my red Monti cap:

My friend had it a few years. I've had it for 3 months or so.

I always wanted a PBT when I had my 300. Beautiful fish.

Thanks, hoss!

Yeah, I always had my eye on a PBT when I had my 55 from 98-03.
When I move I may upgrade to a 180.

Not having a tang will be a down side to the small tank I am setting up.

I was on the lookout for a PBT, but I only wanted to buy one that had outgrown someones tank and had a proven track record of surviving in captivity.

I also want a Moorish Idol.

I never was able to find either one.

My Sohal tang would have had to go if I had ever gotten a PBT. He was a BEAST. He was close a a foot long and could swim so fast you could hear him swishing through the water. I kinda miss that bastard.

When I started this 125 back in October, I had a yellow tang in there, then got a great buy on a moorish idol that was eating prepared food from another local reefer.
YT bullied the moorish idol, which got ick and died. Sucked.
I'll post a link to a video of the moorish idol chowing on nori. Gorgeous fish.

Lesson learned: add the moorish idol first and any tangs last.

Had I gotten an Idol, he would have been the center piece of the tank. I'd have gotten rid of whatever he didn't like. Love those fish.

Getting an orange plate coral this weekend.
Should be a nice addition.

Hermit crab grabbed a new shell last night. This one happens to feature zooanthids.

Testing to see if Flickr works. Lemme know if you can see the image.

Dammit.
Can't figure out how to make an image public in Flickr.

Don't want all images public, just ones I choose, so people can see them in reef forums.
Anyone know how to do so?

Some of us have been using FB as a hosting service.
