Hey kids, been a while, but here's a new project for me. Years ago, before my disaster, some of you may remember that I owned and was proud of a marine aquarium but lost it when i went on my hiatus from society. Well just this last Sunday a friend of mine, whom i've only recently met, sent me an I.M. asking me if I would be interested in a 125 gallon tank for $300.00. yeah, let me think about this......YES!

It's been neglected some and needs some TLC and patience. First thing in order is a canister filter followed by a UV filter then after that about 50 more pounds of live rock to create a make shift mountain/reef. You will notice that one of the live rock has live coral growing on it (super bonus!) anyway, here are the initial pics......

the sole occupant of the tank is a Blue Damsel as the other two fish (Sargent Majors) died due to shock/stress of the move. no worries. i'm setting up a community tank so they were too aggressive from the git go but selling them to the fish store would have been an option. oh well.......I have my work cut out for me.
