Set up a new 29 gallon

s13 · 12-23-2007, 01:15 PM

Well got tired of looking at the old ugly 20 gallon sitting there. I was using it mainly for holding rubble to help fellow mantis buddies out with but I decided to take that tank down and replace it with a 29 for Amadeus! Or maybe I'll buy another mantis

Here is the old 20.

And here is the new 29 set up with my DIY 70W metal halide on it

One of the hermits

These snails LOVE algae.

Some more hermits

My sweet local caught blenny (at least I think it is a blenny)

I just set this tank up maybe 20 minutes ago so it's still cloudy. Everything in this tank was transferred from the 20 gallon. I put about 3 cups of sand in from Amadeus' tank. I don't plan on putting anything in the 29 for a month or two. I want to let it cycle before I do anything. I also plan on adding much more liverock, probably like 20lbs. Let me know what you think so far!

Looks awesome! Much better than before.

Nice light too. Has a nice hue to it.

Oh, that blenny actually looks like some kind of goby by the way.

goby it is then! =P He like goes and just "lays" on the side of the tank. He has some kind of little fin under him that he can I guess hold onto the walls with. Thanks for the compliment. The light is a 14,000k The picture makes it look more gray that it is. It's more of a blue/purplish-white
