It just looks like a seahorse tank.
And I like clowns

Wow! I think this is the longest a tank has set dry in my house
It still is not filled with water and now doing it will have to wait another week since I am going on vacation.
Thanks for all of the suggestions... I think I know what I will put in it. I would like two pair of seahorses. A yellow pair now and later a red pair when they become available.
Lynn, I did have a pony tank before, remember? I will raise the babies this time so it will be fun and exciting for me

If you can cut a door into the side it would be helpful. I have a 60 cube and I have a hard time working under there. I would go with medium flow, and a heap of cool LPS corals. I am using 8 T5s at the moment and i like it. Cool purchase!

Darn! I thought we had you convinced! Latz's are pretty nice though. I guess you had a good reason. I still would have done SH's! Any pics of the Latz's?
Blake, it was a very tough decision!
Once my latezonatus clowns are released from the quarantine tank and placed back into the 60 cube, I will take more photos.
Here are a few photos that are over 1 month old. The latezonatas in the quarantine tank:

Thanks Doc. I am now contemplating putting my favorite pair of Snowcassos in it instead of the Latezonatus clowns.... I could put the latz in a 40 gallon breeder or a 100 gallon rubbermaid sump.
The eight week fallow period ends November 9th so I have a few more days to decide.

Tough decision on that one Doni. Afraid I can't be of much help there. All I can say is if the Snowcassos seem to be happy where they are, I probably wouldn't move them. Just because you love the 60 cube doesn't mean they will.
Guess I just have the if it ain't broke, don't fix it mentality. So far it's worked great in my 200.

Well, I decided to put one of my favorite pairs of Snowcassos in the cube. The latz will go into a 40 gal breeder or maybe a 100 gallon sump.
The 60 gallon cube completed a 9 week fallow period after removing the latz and I have added the Snowcassos.
Some of the rock was 'cooked' in a darkened saltwater vat for 8-9 weeks so it is very 'clean'.
Here are a few photos from this morning.
I replaced the 150 MH with a Hamilton Belize 250 watt DE. Although the RBTA's were just fine with the 150 watt, the purple H. crispa I moved from my 120 gallon reef demands stronger lighting.
I am only using the 250 watt DE and the moon lights now. With the 14 k Hamilton bulb, using the additional T5 actinics is not needed. The 14k MH has a nice blue hue to it.
Hamilton Belize 250 watt DS MH, two moon lights, two T5's.
