BLUE TANG DISCLAIMER:
My blue tang has been in this nano for two years as of now 12/26/18
Ive had a lot of experience with baby tangs and if I could share some good advice it would be to NOT get a baby tang in your nano system, unless you understand their behaviors and have a future plan for them.
There are all sorts of factors, too much to explain here, but just to name a few.
-having an ideal amount of tank mates/ideal species that don't pose a territorial threat.
-a good amount of space to swim in random flow along with lots of areas to hide & @ the same time.
-having a back up plan to when the tang gets too big for comfort is a must.

-For myself, my intentions were to get this tang a new home by the time it reached 2.5" of length. (which btw, recently happened:D )

That being said, it's time for a new home! which happens to be this Nuvo INT 75g build you see here.

I've been looking into what it takes to build a saltwater tank, super glad I stumbled on this channel!

[BahamaLlamaCoral]

Love the video Drew! Can’t wait for the next one. The scape is dope. Thanks for sharing!

[michaelmartinez]

Love the scape. Please do a video for each step of your build. Your other tank looks Amazing.

[Reefloco]

Love the scape!! Definitely made the tonga look really good! Awesome video!!

[jeffthomas]

Looks really cool Drew! This tank is going to be super sweet 👍🏼

[ImCools]

The songs you had playing were awsome and thanks for the tips can’t believe you still made that beauty of a reef! 💪🏼🔥😂

[Reefkpr]

Turned out so nice! I used AF stone fix. Took a while to figure out consistency but wound up working pretty well. I fragged the torch like I sold Alex. Should be ready soon. Hit me up next time your in SLO. Phil

[emmanuelV]

Love the tonga branches and the build of this aquascape! What happened to this 75 gallong tank? Do you still have it?

[samoryTure]

All these cements are crap.
Epoxy and you wouldn't need any drilling.

[michaeltalley]

Awesome! Do you super glue all of your corals in place?

[drewslagoon]

What do you guys think of the aquascape? I know it may look odd now, but it will soon be filled with coral & will look absolutely beautiful (:
(My lagoon didn't look pretty as a bare scape either) loll

[ifly]

Your use of Tonga gives 3d depth I havent seen before. Because of you I am now joining the hobby. Eat Sleep Reef EPIC TANK video is insane of your nano tank. Alice in Wonderland looking. I just bought the Fusion Pro2 25g Lagoon. Do you like the expensive stands IM offers? Thanks!

[steevareno]

looks great! Where'd you buy the Tonga branch rock?Ty

[jsreefs]

Looks awesome!! 👌Makes me what to rescape my tank! 🤔Lol! Congrats on the new build.

[WCorbin]

I love this bro. I wanna build a Tonga scape for sps only. Very inspiring

[dramad]

Bravo! Came out great and love the 25g lagoon. I've seen it featured in another guys video. Great reefing!

[FloodXL]

Where are you dude? Been dying to see an update on your new

[PleasingPapaGod]

Hi I would love to have the same tank HELP

[emmanuelalvarez]

Wait why did he say 75 gallon when it’s a 25 gallon

[gilbertdizon]

Looks pretty cool and simple but with a lot of forward thinking into it - form and function. Looking forward to the next update!
