Toby Flenderson Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Awesome John! That is a sweet tank, I like the matching top and bottom. I lost track though, this is for the mantis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islandoftiki Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 Yep, this tank is going to be a mantis tank. I'm thinking about making it a low light mushroom garden as far as corals go. I was thinking about another pest tank, but then I've always wanted to do a mushroom-only tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnkrcklives Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Very nice score. Mike is a great guy. Just spent the last weekend with him at reefapalooza debuting his new line of tanks. I am kinda jealous I want one of his tanks now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islandoftiki Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 I really like Mike, too. My 10 gallon tank was one that he did as a custom size and people liked it so much he added it to their lineup of tanks. I've been really happy with the tank and was stoked to be able to score his old main display tank for the business. I can't wait to get started on the build. I'm going to start out as a MOWLR tank and eventually start adding lots of mushrooms! I'm trying to decide right now if I want to go with dry rock or some fresh aquacultured live rock with lots of critters in it. I'm leaning towards the aquacultured live rock. Having a really good rockscape is going to be important in this one, so dry rock would be easier to work with. Decisions, decisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbird Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 This is going to be a epic mantis build (clap) Is the tank drilled for a sump? Looks brand new, so shiny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
