SRC Member Awjw Posted August 13, 2018 SRC Member Share Posted August 13, 2018 Will be using this to document my new tank setup after a nightmarish experience on my 3ft tank. Lost most livestock and my beloved tangs of 1yr and almost stopped the hobby. But decided to give it one more go and now will be with a 522 tank by aquarium artist. Tank will be arriving next week and hope all will be fine. Below is a pic of my 3ft before tragedy stuck.
