My Set up Process.

10/20/04

I bought a stand from walmart and set that thing up. IT's pretty sturdy and will defiantly hold up the weight. I stood on it along with my dad and brother. We all jumped on 3 and still held up without a wobble. I would have a picture but my little sister lost my cammera. I'll post a picture of it once it is located.

Thanks for reading, there will most definatly be more to come.

Found the cammera! So here's a picture. I will be picking up the tank tomarrow. Just incase you don't know the tank comes with a maroon clown and a yellow tang.

Tank is at home now!

To my disapointment it has crushed shells and rocks for substrate but it's still really good The lights are brand new and boy the tank weighs a ton. Some water spilt in the car but there is enought to put back in at a safe level. The only filter to my amazement is a UG (under gravel) filter. The guy said he had kept tangs, clowns, anemonies, and even succesfully caring for sea horses! Wow a successful sea horse owner with only a UG filter. I am truly amazed. Well anyhoo the tank is disgusting due to the car ride. Theres poo all over the top. Tomarow my mom is taking me to the dreded petes pets for some salt and test kits. Heres a picture or the two fish I have and the disgusting state the tank is in, oh yea and all the cool dried coral and sea fans.

Here's the tank

Look at all the poop nasty isnt it

Here's the Yellow Tang

Here's the maroon clown. To me he looks black.

That's a really dirty tank. I got a full day of cleaning it tommarow. Plus I'll post some pics of the stuff that came with it later.

My family and I are heading out to PetCo to get some salt and maybe a fish. I will most definatly look for some hermits or turbo snails for algae and waste purposes.
