    New 120 gallon reef tank

    I recently bought a 120 gallon tank with a 30 gallon refugium, I have put the live rock and sand in the tanks, and so far I have 3 scarlet legged hermits, 10 or so nassarious snails, a pencil urchin, 6 nerite snails, 2 black and white clownfish, and 2 neon gobies, look at "fish list" in "new to saltwater" for more info.

    There is no elevator to success in marine tanks. You have to take the stairs.

    I have always, as long as I can remember ,though im only 15, had a passion for marine fish, life, and habitats. I even had fun PLUMBING the tank! I feel this will be a passion of mine for many a decade. I enjoy watching my urchin crawl over rocks, and snails moving around. Im not sure how much you love yours, but you've got some competition! lol.

    some more:

    hiding zebra goby, these guys are characters


    the zebra gobies out and about, whenever I come into my room, they dart under the rock, and then come out a second later like nothing happened!


    and my lawnmower blenny, he's a walrus!


    thats it for now, hope you like them!

    *update* I am pretty sure one of my neon gobies is pregnant! They have dug the sand out of a rock and are living there, and the pregnant on is twice the size of the male!
