Posted my new tank in my original post, kind of looks the same just smaller.

Thought I'd post some updated pics - I just switched from Geissmann Actinic+ plus XM10K to Reeflux 12K with Geissmann Pure Actinic. Much nicer colours

Very nice tank, Fish!

[fish]

Thanks. I ran into trouble last summer and I have been working hard to bring it back. Always learning...

[Hookup]

wow fish, great looking reef.  Hats off.

[Severum]

Wow! How old is that tank? Those are some big arse colonies of SPS.

[fish]

Thanks guys. It has been up for 4 years.

My first effort into the marine world. A 33 gallon bowfront with a 30 gallon sump. Have almost completed an upgrade to a 75 gallon setup.

Hey Bob - how about a new pic?

Here is my tank. I have mostly LPS and some easy SPS.

Here's my FTS.  I built the bookcase that surrounds the tank.  Tank is a standard 120G (4x2x2) with a dedicated sump room in the basement.  Tank has only been up for 4 months now.

Love the built in!

Thanks!  I'll post some of the details in the saltwater build forum.  The hood is hinged and operates with a powered actuator.  The basement has a 60G sump and a 30G saltwater mixing station.  Water changes involve turning two valves and emptying the bucket of water.  I'm pretty happy with how it turned out - maintenance is very easy - and for me that is the key to success.

Here goes. This tank has all LED lighting. Taken about 1 week after we transferred from our 75g. This is a 180g with 50g sump.

FTS full lighting



FTS just blues

Nice!  What is on the backwall?  Is that stacked rock or foam or something else?
