    Some Of My Fish Tanks

    Here are a couple of the tanks I have had over the years. Reef tanks were my obsesion before I found ball pythons. Due to reefs being tons of $$ and time, I am down to a 12 Aquapod nano reef.

    I've had two 55gal reefs, 1 55gal FOWLR, 90gal aggressive FOWLR, 29gal reef, and a 12gal nano reef. I was going through my photobucket today and found these two pics and thought I would post them up. I have pics of the other tanks but can't find them.

    My favorite tank of all was my aggressive 90gal. I had a purcupine puffer, a cherry bomb lion fish, and a zebra moray eel in it. The tongs I use to feed my BP are the same tongs I use to use to feed my eel, Beetlejuice. I really miss that eel.

    90gal Bowfront Oceanic my dad and I did at his house.

    Very cool! Man, I was getting the itch to start a salt water tank, but I spend all my money on snakes.

    Re: Some Of My Fish Tanks

    Nice tanks man! I'm with you on reefing being an obsession before snakes were, I gave up on saltwater after I started delving into ball pythons. My reef tank as nice as it was, was a money pit.

    I still have the itch to do a full blown SPS reef... maybe some day again, but until then I'm fine with Melanie's 55 (soon to be 75g) FOWLR, and I'm going to setup my 12g nano for a pair of onyx percs I'm getting from a buddy. Likely just FOWLR, but maybe some zoos and mushrooms.

    Like I need another addiction, hard to spend on anything other than snakes right now.

    One day if I ever have a house built, I'd like to do a 300gal in-wall fish only. I've always wanted lrg angels and tangs. I just got to hit that lotto!!!

    Re: Some Of My Fish Tanks

    Nice tanks! And I agree with everyone so far. I really want to set up a nice big reef tank, but I can't afford it with the snake hobby right now. If we ever sell our condo and get a house, I'm hoping to use about $5k to build a big in-wall tank for soft coral and a few fish.
    What are these mojavas I keep hearing so much about?

    Awesome tanks! I love reef tanks but with the fish I wanted to have, it wouldn't work. And I couldn't live without getting my trigger! So I had to sacrafice! But like Jason said... Maybe he'll set up a reef tank again sometime...
