Hey guys!!! Sorry about the delay, it's been a bit crazy lately and this is the first time I've been able to jump on RC in weeks!
Yeah MuShu, having the baby is, although amazing, a total time warp...most of the time I don't even know what day of the week it is.
The tank is doing well, except that I lost both the blonde naso and Achilles I tried introducing. The powder blue attacked the Achilles bad and even after I pulled him out to QT (no easy feat in that size display), I think the stress caused ich and he only lasted 2-4 more days.
I recently lost the grafted monti from WWC which was a major bummer, and I honestly don't know what caused it to bleach out literally within 36 hours. The parameters have been fine and my nitrates and phosphates remain at zero. I didn't think it was the lights, as it had been in the tank a few weeks already and was steadily encrusting...I guess just happens no matter what you do sometimes. I guess I'll have to search out another!
I promise to post pics ASAP!!!!!

Dang, that sucks you lost the naso and achilles. It's odd since you have such a large tank. Did you try having them in a breeder box or anything for a while or did they go right in after QT?

Wow!
Love your project and of course the fishroom and the chiller outside.
Zero noise inside the kitchen and the living room.

Ahhh, the beauty of a large tank. It's one thing to see the size of the tank based off the fish size... it's another to see the size of the tank with a human standing by.
Beautiful.
Beautiful.

Check these out taken last night!!
They were rescued from a pretty much neglected tank and are now loving life. They moved from a 1 bedroom house to the penthouse suite at the Ritz Carlton..265gl to a 1000gl.
Super personably and love coming right up to you if your standing in front of the tank. It almost seems like they like to show off. BEAUTIFUL!
