Hi, SW fans, I'm back. I just converted a 72 bow front to a FOWLR tank. THe water is crystal clear, gonna check levels later and see about adding some inhabitants.

Here's a picture!

I changed the rock work around to make two distinct caves, an area of rubble and rocks and an open sandy area. Got to give the cleaning crew places to hide and some cover for the triggers.

There's a Niger Trigger in the tank too, but he is in hiding..lol. Kevin at APFP sold me the trigger and his home as a package deal..lol..now the fish comes out, but if I get near the tank he darts back into the shell. I'll get a pic eventually.

The Niger Trigger..from across the room with the zoom on my DROID phone..close as I can get to the tank when he is out without him dipping into his shell. Pic is crappy, but it shows his size, about 4"

You know me, man. I do things a little different, but it's all from reading up on it. These guys are eating like pigs! I got to get video of them going nuts on a cube of blood worms, it's awesome!

If I went salt I would also want a trigger and lion fish too.

Some day I will do a salt water tank. Who knows. Im just getting started in the fresh water. :D

A couple friends of mine have some tanks they might be able to get their hands on. Maybe I can talk them into selling to me. I know one of them is 250 and another is 500, not sure of the other sizes.

So who knows, I get my hands on a 500, that could free up a nice 120 square to turn into salt. :scratch: HMMMMMMM :suspect:

My absolute favorite s/w fish is a draw between a clown tang & dwarf flame angel. Just my personal favorites.
