Granite State Fishin'

jimbanks · 04-04-2008, 10:46 AM

Hi everyone, just wanted to say hello and I look forward to the advice and help I will certainly get from these forums. My tank is cycled and stocked with a couple fish and I'm ready to look at adding some more.

I have a 75gallon tank. I'm a little unfamiliar with the filter terms that most of you use but I have a Fluval 404 canister and an AquaClear110 (500gph) hanging off the back. I got the tank and filters from a guy locally and he said the set up was working perfectly, the tank just took up too much space. I also have a completely submersible 225 watt powerhead keeping the current going stong.
In the tank right now are two true percula clowns and a niger triggerfish. I put them in at the same time so there is no territorial battle. A friend of mine had a barrell full of old dead coral so after rinsing it thoroughly I put a bunch of that in there as well. It looks sharp! The tank came with a custom light set, a black light, a white light with fan, and a moon light for night time simulation.
This is my first saltwater tank and as of this moment I love it. I already see myself up-sizing eventually, just need to find the space.
Will add pics when I take them!
