Hello All! My name is Dion Richins. I'm in Farmington Utah. I found this site through a web referral from Jake. (TechETS) These are my tanks as of today. They seam to change on a continuous bases Ive been reefing for about 8 years. I am in the presidency of the WMAS (www.utahreefs.com) bout 3 years now. I am a furniture builder and as Jake said in his blog we build some kick *** Aquarium Furniture. You can see examples at www.richinscarpentry.com Look under Aquarium furniture. I also have been banned from lartnec feer for questioning the enlightened. Any way here is my 180g Ray tank. It was built around my Blue spotted Ribbon Tail. It is an acquisition of my wifes and she decided how she wanted the set up built. I just said "yes dear" Click image for larger version

    Hey, I remember that Ray tank! I'm so glad to see you on ReefAddicts.

    So the breeding tanks are doing nothing down in the basement? What about that very elusive Yellow fish I tried repeatedly to get a picture of?
  2. Dion Richins's Avatar
    I took down the breeding system to make the wife happy. I had 300+baby bangaii at one time and was setting up holding tanks on any available surface. Needless to say after a kid or 2 moves out I can set up a breeding room

    The elusive yellow fish finally passed away after 2 years (?). Unfortunatly it was due to mechanical error;(

    Im glad you remembered. Awesome!!

    Look at all those pictures. You should have made them their own blog entry. Each time you post a "new blog" it just becomes a fresh entry to your ongoing journal. You know, the one you update every four years.
