This corner of The Fox Den is devoted to the aquatic friends I've had over the years.
Salt Water:
I started this tank when I was living in the dorm during college. It is 50 gallons with a 10 gallon sump. Before the move, the tank contained the tang, anthias, clown, damsel, and one of the gobies. All the rest are acquisitions after the move. All the components of the tank are D.I.Y. and its been running for over a year.

Fresh Water:
During my college dorm life, I had a fresh water tank. It was 20 gallons with a hang on box filter and an under gravel filter. When I moved out, I had to donate the fish since I could not take them with me. They are probably all still alive and well in their new home. They are missed.
