The beginning of my 415 gallon tank
Getting the tank in the house. The empty tank weighs over 1,000lbs and took 10 guys to get it in the house and on the stand.
Turning it into a Saltwater Reef Aquarium
Lots of highs and lows over the years, but the tank is still up and running nearly 10 years later.
Creating a greenhouse shed refugium
Adding a 12' x 16' greenhouse with a 1,100 gallon refugium, 100 gallon, 150 gallon sumps and clownfish growout tanks.
Raising Ocellaris Clownfish (Nemo)
One of the most rewarding, but demanding things I played so far in the hobby was raising clownfish.
