Currently I have about 20 lbs of live rock, a cleaner shrimp, and a pair of clowns. Thank you!

    You're probably going to want spotlighting for the mangroves as they get super tall. I doubt they'll get enough from the window but they'll probably wind up looking spectacular with some under lighting/spotlighting. It's an awesome tank. Makes me really want to get into clams and mangroves.

    Love this tank. I've been thinking about getting some more mangroves for some time. I haven't kept them in years. The pods generally ship well right? I vaguely recall the ones I kept years ago spending quite some time in transit. I can't get any locally so just want to make sure they don't necessarily need to be sent overnight express. Also love the Scopas! I have a yellow one as well but he has a grey tail. I choose him over a completely yellow (not quite as bright as this one) so it's more obvious he is not a yellow tang but could still be mistaken by someone not too familiar with fish.

    @y.a.d1737 3 роки тому

    It just pushes me to do a tank like tis but when I realise that I don't have the amount to set up this tank,its quite disappointing but that again pushes me to save money nd not spend it on new corals,such an inspiring tank is this Jake!

    • @cartilagehead6326
      @cartilagehead6326 3 роки тому

      I think if you save money on your tank and go with something like converting an inexpensive 40 breeder and/or using all-in-one or HOB gear you could pull off a nice mangrove/clam setup. Mangroves and attractive Maxima clams themselves aren't prohibitively expensive if you're already buying coral frags.
      High end rimless tanks and integrated stands are really nice, but I think a lot of hobbyists get caught up in lusting after $2-$4k setups when a well-stocked, well-maintained aquarium built out of $200-$500 in gear and smart buys or DIY built components can get you 90% of the way there. For a lot of people that's also the difference between having one expensive showpiece tank that looks awesome and has lots of space (but might limit you in some of the things you could try--like you might not start experimenting with mangroves if you only have the time and budget for a cherry 150gal acropora reef) vs having multiple tanks with vastly different kinds of livestock.
