jtbadco · #3 09-28-2011, 02:38 AM

Thanx!!!

It is a 33 Gal long tank (48x12x12)

Wow, I assumed it was quite a bit larger than 33. Looks good.

Thanx,...It's a deceptive little tank. I love the dimensions...it's all viewing space. Only drawback is you can't keep larger fish. That's for my next tank. I'm still pretty new to this.

Ya that definitely looks much larger than 33g. What equipment r you running on that beauty?

Tank has been up and running for only 6 mnths total.

All parameters stable, all fish and corals healthy and growing well.
