    Like the title states, I am doing another build. I am doing a 93 gallon cube, Clownfish harem. I started a few days ago but I haven't done much. So far all I have done is make water, add a little sand (5-ish pounds), and add a little rock (10-ish pounds). The plan (subject to change) is 80-ish pounds of sand and an undetermined amount of rock from my other tanks. I also plan on adding 10-15 mixed combination of Green and Red Bubble Tip Anemones. I haven't decided what Clowns I want.

    *****Caution, tank under construction*****

    Ha! I knew it. What clowns are you going to get? The BRS clown harem tank has black and white occelaris. With your bucks I'm expecting something exotic like 15 Wyomings are Nakeds! :cool:

    Doc I will probably go basic with just plain old Ocellaris. Those are honestly my favorite.

    One of the baffles in my 125's sump blew out. I decided to remove all the rock and put it in this 93 cube. I found a Bristle worm. [​IMG][​IMG]

    I emptied the sump from the 125 and put all the rock and BTAS in the 93 for temporary holding. I carried the sump outside, cleaned it up, and learned the glass that I had cut is about 1/16 -1/8 too big. The temporary holding is going to be longer than planned since I can't put the sump back together.

    Oh yeah, some pictures. There is 1 RBTA and 6 or 7 Green BTAs. At least 6. And 2 Maxi Mini Carpet Anemones that are attached to the rock also.

    Looking awesome. Is it pretty safe to mix the anemones and soft coral? The reason I ask, is because I've got clowns and soft corals in my 29 gallon cube. The difference may be that yours in 93 gallon and a lot more room.

    Most of the time yes. The biggest problem with Anemones is if you have a wanderer.

    The suction cup on the power head failed. There is fine sand everywhere. Sad face.

    I moved some of the rock. I have 8 Green BTAs and 1 Red BTA. I also have 2 Maxi Mini Carpet Anemones, 1 blue, 1 rainbow. The pictures don't do them justice.
