[spongebob lover]

i haven't had one of those so i don't know if i should hate them or not, but if they are the kind that eats corals i would hate them so much.

If you had $1 million dollars and you had to spend it on a fish tank how big, what equip, what fish, would you put in it?

 

[spongebob lover]

lol hmmm i might do that
ohh boy if i had the million dollars i would not buy one fish tank i would buy 3 700 gals or bigger then in one i would put octopuses or rays or may be sharks, the other one would be a only sps tank and the last one would be only for false perc and true perc clowns with anemones in there for them to be happy.
about the equipment hmm i'm still learning what's best, but i thikn i would invite Anthony Calfo, Mike (mojo),MtnDewMan, Nikki, etc... to help me build the best of the best for the tanks and then have the happy hour here
ohh ya that's one of my dreams aside from building the biggest tank in the world hehe

what would you do if you had the 1 million dollars ?

 

[scottw]

I would have to build a 10,000 gallon reef. I would have it free for anyone to come over and look. It would be all sun lit naturally, I would have lots of tangs, and colorful fish. I would allow people to come over and dive and pick there own coral frags off the rock. Nothing like sharing with fellow reef nerds (as my wife calls us).

BB or DSB?

 

[spongebob lover]

LOL !!! hey there's nothing better than being a reef nerd
i'm still learning here so what's bb and dsb ?

 

[scottw]

DSB= Deep Sand Bed
BB = Bare Bottom

So what do you have?
