Default Pictures of my...Tank

Well after more than a year of lollygagging around I finally added sand, water and rock to my 155gal tank.

Here are some preliminary pictures of the tank. I haven't done the aquascaping yet. When I put the rock in the tank was so cloudy you couldn't see your hand in there. Lisa and I had a good laugh the next morning when the water had cleared as we thought it didn't look to bad for a blind guy.

The lighting on the tank for these pics is 4x110 (3 actinic and 1 daylight).

Thanks everyone (except Andrew). Terry the first picture is a recently discovered species called Holycrapus amieverbrokus, it's slow-witted and nasty tempered.

Yup Rob, I'm excited. I've been waiting a long time to put this thing together.

Hello,

Hey Troy finally man. BTW, I notice something is run with the skimmer. The bubbles shouldn't be reaching the exit bulkhead area. Have you taken out the horizontal baffle?

Titus
