Dry rock with seeded rock plus some live rock in the sump. pretty close to the final rock layout

Moved the fish over from the 50 gallon and added a bunch of rock from that sump to this sump. It was nice to see the tang able to fully "spread his wings". I had always felt bad about having him in there but he never seemed stressed so i never removed him.

Fish include:
Tail spot blenny
yellow tang
kole tang
2 true perc clowns
Blue chromis
3 Orange striped cardinals
6 line wrasse

Probably not going to add very many more fish. maybe a small angel and a hawk fish of sorts. but not for a while

Still deciding on lights so only half the tank is a lit.

will you be transferring the coral over too, or leaving the 50g running?.....what are the dimensions on this bad boy?....it doesnt look like your typical 90g....

I will be moving the corals over soon. I have to decide/wait on a light for this tank so for the time being i will have the AI fixture or as soon as i figure out how to hang it over the tank the sunpower fixture that i had previously. I moved all of the zoas over because i didn't think they would be as pick as the sps.

Tank is an euro-braced inverted 90. so 48" X 24" X 18". I have a 30 gallon breeder tank underneath that i added baffles to for the sump. I am probably going tripod shopping tomorrow so i will try and get some photos of everything.

thank you. I was thinking of going for something like Lobsterboys revised tank. Turns out 50lbs of rock was too much for that. I am pleased with how it turned out. it will look a little bit different after i get the seed rock off of the Marcorocks (thanks CaCo3REEF) and to the sump with the rest of the live rock i already have in there.
