300 gal In-wall aquarium & 2 40 Breeders

brandyrb · May 31, 2009

Here's an old pic of our 300 gal aquarium. It has changed a bit since then. We've sold off a lot of the common sps colonies and got more rare sps frags. The RBTA and clowns went to their own 40 breeder:

Nice Tanks! You got any pics on how it mounted in the wall (Trimmed out)? I'm thinking about mounting one in the wall also.

That's a gorgeous tank

I really like the rock work. Thanks for sharing

+1 the rock work is awesome in the 300g

Crystal · May 31, 2009

Nice pictures too.

Great looking tanks! Can't wait to see some more current pics!

Thanks for all the comments. It'll be a little bit before I add updated pics of the 300. The whole left end got redone to remove GSP and mushrooms on the rock and the new rock work isn't as nice IMO. A lot of the colonies have also been replaced with frags of different sps.

Here's a couple pics my husband has of when we first got the 300 going. Not the prettiest project.

Here's a peek at the messy fish room:

An older pic showing the trim. We still haven't touched up the calk or painted the trim in its permanent color.:

Here's an old pic of our emperor angel next to a blue carpet anemone. We had to rehome the anemone as the angel wouldn't stop nipping at the anemone's mouth.

last pic is beautiful

Chrissy · Jun 7, 2009

Beautiful tank! Is it hard to clean?
That pipefish is ADORABLE
