Moved into a new house several months ago and went with a new display in my man cave. It is a little over 600g system total. Ironically a year ago I sold my fish to a member on here because I knew we would be moving. A month or so ago he contacted me asking if I was interested in getting them back and the timing was perfect so I got them all back home. I had most of these several years so they are all huge fish. Here is a video to start this thread

Yep, the bannerfish are bigger than any I've seen too. Even in public aquariums, these are bigger. The streamers are about 8" long.

tank is 3' front/back and 3' tall x 7 long. For reference there is 2' of swimming room in front of the rockwork. I will probably remove some of the rock when time allows.

I'm glad you got your fish back! Seems like it couldn't have worked out any better. I moved too, sold my 210. I'm down to a 90. :( Maybe some day I can have a system like yours.

Good to see you back. Moves and fishtanks not a good combo, still getting there from ours which was quite awhile ago so glad to see you got your old fish back.

Looks great Jeremy I really miss the 11 foot length. I'll have to upgrade again in a few years these fish are monstrous already
