Dbo's Lagoon

Long time no see 3Reef!
I've been out of the hobby for about 4 years now after my 210g got brooklynella and took all my fish out.
Got discouraged and shut it down and sold everything.
Alot has happened in the last 4 years, got married, had a new baby boy added to the family last November and bought a new house.
Now that i'm settled in a little i figured it was the perfect time to get a tank running again.
i wanted something that i could put in the living room, smaller, easier to take care of but at the same time modern and cool.

Settled on the innovative marine 25g lagoon.

I like the shallow look and always wanted to try rimless with some exposed rock work.
I didn't see anything on the market that suited my style for the stand so i built it myself.

Anyways glad to be back and hope to hear from some of you that remember me from way back when!

Equipment.
Innovative Marine 25g Lagoon
DIY Stand
(2) AI Prime HD's

So far i'm cycled and have 2 clowns and a few clean up crew snails/hermits.
Waiting to add anything else for about a month.
The plants out of the water are Tillandsia (air plants) and are just wedged in between some crevices of the rock, they get sprayed with RO-DI every few days. In between the plants there is a waterfall that cascades back into the tank.

 

Wow 3reef has really changed. Anyone even here anymore lol

Lol i have been away awhile also and was wondering the same thing. Maybe aquasd is the only one here?

The tank looks really nice I like the clean and high tech approach.

The out of water portion is really cool as well!

 

Oh and congratulations on the life upgrades wife, kid and house!
