Yet another Anarchy build

Well the 125 I was running went down hill for no apparent reason. Coral died. A hand full of fish died. So I decided I was going to give up the hobby and just watch others tanks from the shadows. That was until a couple of my buddies builds ( [MENTION=2027]1000rrstunna[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2309]enzo1028[/MENTION] ) started making me want to get back into things and build a well thought out system like they were doing. So for the past couple months I've planned out a system that will have all the necessities. The fish room is only about 50% done but here's some pictures. My 30 is on a stand under my stair inside the fish room. The sump is on the ground in front of the 30. There will be a stand over the sump for a qt, fuge, and salt water storage. There's an ato under the 30. The room is very small but will hold everything pretty much perfectly the way I've designed. Since the room is small it's hard to take pictures. There will be a manifold added at a later date. The marine pure block is in the sump now. Also I either plan on putting a bathroom vent or a dehumidifier in there also to help control humidity. At a later date the 93 will go where the 125 is currently sitting and it will be a fowlr tank. Going to try to take this build as slow as I can. Don't want to rush anything and make mistakes like I've done in the past.

Everything that was still alive in the 125 is officially in the 30. Once the 125 is out of the house I have some drywalling to do then I'll be moving my 93 back in. That's when I'll move over the bigger fish. Also have some reef flakes that will go in the 30

Tank is pretty much setup how I want it. Still have some small odds and ends to finish up in the fish room. The sailfin will be finding a new home soon. Soon I'll be buying up fish and inverts to finish off the stocking list. As for the 93... at this time I've decided it's not worth it to our it up. Who knows may change my mind next week

Well my wife hooked it up today. Since I work nights and had to sleep today I woke up to these lovely gems. Of course they disappeared right away never to be seen again.

Sailfin went to it's new home today. It was one of my favorites but I don't plan on upgrading anytime soon so no need to keep it in a tiny tank

Well tanks been running great. All the coral are looking good. Havnt seen the 2 newest fish since putting them in. I've seen the pistol shrimp though so hoping everything is fine. Got rid of the sailfin and the ruby head wrasse. Now all the fish that are left are suitable for my tank size.

Well with a lot of rock dwelling fish and inverts planned for this tank I decided I needed more rock than open space so I rescaped. Hopefully you guys like it. Also got all the tanks for the fuge, saltwater storage, qt and all that. Just have to drill them all. Everything is going to be on hold for a little while. My daughter will be born in 2 weeks so I'll be doing the new baby thing and getting life settled again. I also picked up 2 bulbs from coral compulsions. Shout out to Jimmy for some sweet bulbs.

First pic is the new scape no led.
Second pic is with the new 22k 35w bulb and t5s
Third pic is only the 22k 35w led

The 14w 18k vibrance bulb will be used for a frag area of my sump. (When that time comes)

Let me know if I should get another 22k for better led coverage or if 1 is good enough

Just some pics. The red ear barnacle blenny has the perfect spot so I can keep an eye on him. The goby on the other hand havnt seen him but maybe 1 time since I bought it. Found the pistol shrimps den so I'm hoping the goby is close by

Did a water change, vacuumed the sand, and cleaned the glass. Probably going to reroute the return plumbing to hide it better. Also going to run some carbon soon to clear up the water

Yeah I know he's selling a killer pack right now but I have to be extremely picky with the limited space I have. He does have some I want though
