Sorry no time for stories at this point in time. And excuse the average pics with bits and pieces sitting all over the tank, no time to make it look pretty.
Any questions ask away :)

It's a disgusting and abhorrent mess! I can't believe you would even post this online because it's so offensively gross!

Man, you have high standards! My husband thinks -I- am a perfectionist!!!

What lights are you using? 2 lights covering 8 feet?! Sorcery!

We know 2 lights isn't enough. The lights are AI Hydra 52's. We're waiting on our lfs for a third the same, very hard to find the same lights not the new HD version. Then I'll make a new custom bracket for that one two and finally light that dull patch in the middle of the tank properly.

Next post I'll plan to do an updated fish list with pictures.

 

[Sam Parker]

Stunning tank guys, well done! Absolutely loving your fish, so jealous of the fem and candy hog having lost both mine :(

Surely you could have the third light as a HD but just have the same setup as your non-HD lamps? Or am I on the wrong track there?

I'll finish with; WOW. Post pics more often!

I thought the Fem was a Halichoeres. Sorry, my mistake.

 

[Wrangy]

Just gorgeous!! I have to say that is an AMAZING mix of fish you two have in the tank there :D And just lovely to see some of the trickier species thriving in there as well!! :D

I'd hate to think of how much food you're pumping into the tank so I'd love to hear it when you get a chance :)
If you ever see a scruffy bearded red head at Dave's in tracksuit pants :p come say hello :)

I wouldn't say we poor a heap into the tank each day. They get two feedings. But it all goes in like 30 seconds.

Haha we know who the red head is at Dave's.

This is a really good point. I was once in Eastwood at the same time as a really cute gingery blonde guy and maybe it's just me, but I thought that as our eyes met, our gaze lingered slightly longer than necessary in that "I am trying to work out if it is you/are you on the forum? i am too shy to ask" kind of way. The reality is, that I am not really a deep sea diving chihuahua... I want to meet everyone someday.

 

[Sam Parker]

National meet up is the go! Introductions all round :)
