Ok bottle trick success on the wrasse, 30 minutes and that guy was in. Gramma, not a chance, non interest and way to quick to net. Cherub same as gramma. Falcon, trapped, he was so curious he Sat in my acclimation box and I just shut the lid. So 2 more into the display, gotta find a game...
Oh the bottle trick looks interesting, think I saw videos on yt and just thought that was legit fishing. I may start there and hopefully get the wrasse/gramma. Idk if that would work on the bigger fish. Ty for them offer, well see if i need to take you up on that, where located.
Stocking strategy, please give me thoughts…advice, recco for substitutions or avoidances. Especially thoughts on when I can add my current remaining healthy stock (6line,royal gramma, cherub angel and falco hawkfish) vs what I think is propper addition path below based on research and others...
Separate question. Anyone have a favorite fish trap? Clowns were easy. Now I have a six line, royal gramma, falco hawk and a blue dwarf angel to catch in my other tanks. Then I was planning to use the two 32 bio cube tanks as qt as I add more fish overtime but try to keep the rock/coral as is...
Radiata thanks, I’m very happy with the rock after a few weeks. Was worried it’s too much, going to get creative with wave makers and flow patterns, idk. Would love to do gsp across the entire back wall. Did pulsing xenia on one which was cool. Taking my time but agree lots of hide outs to help...
Good call, I currently have 1 tiny blue leg in that I accidentally grabbed while netting a clown. Prob not gonna cover it lol.
Any reccos for this size and stage? Was thinking below but feels a bit heavy? But ugly stage will come in like a wrecking ball I’m sure.

Thanks all, I was debating on removing the top layer of rock but I then started making more coves and ledges to Curt’s point just a lot more spots for fish to dive in and out and hang out, so I think I’m kinda digging it. I ordered 100lbs but think the brs guys were extra generous. So flows...
Thanks all, I’m very excited to start this next adventure. Vlad do you think i should dial back the rock??? I kept going back and forth, there are tons of caves and shelves but the 18” depth is a bit challenging so not maybe quite as much front on space but have some good front swim lanes for...
Ok yea this was my thought. How do I keep each tank from overflowing, is there a float switch that can simply hang into pump chamber like a regular ato to close line so that would stop a line if that chamber was full as the main pump try’s to push to all? Sorry maybe an easy concept I just...
Very cool, ty for the tips and glad to hear you’re happy with it. I just loved getting almost 6 ft of tank at 120 gallons so very excited to wrap up a basement project and get the new tank started. Will heed some of your advice, I’m really trying to keep things simple and stay away from the...
Thanks for the thoughts. Vlad can you expand on the manifold concept, one pump was my goal so that makes sense. Each tank is an AIO setup so there will be no sumps and I’m trying to eliminate individual ato reservoirs and pumps at each tank cabinet and essentially have a sensor/airline tube...
Post a pic/tell me about your mixing setups? I’m thinking of going two 20-25 gallon tanks for salt / rodi. I’ll have my 2 bio cube 32’s which will become Coral only / QT tanks for main display (maybe keep a pair of clowns in each for something constant) and then a new IM SR120 (on order) on...
