So I have been lurking in the corners of canreef and have admired many peoples tanks and quietly learned a thing or two (or a bazillion, which is a real number).

This is my first "real" tank, and by that I mean a tank which I didn't just impulsively buy without knowing anything about anything. It is a 90 gallon (but reversed) and has a 33 gallon sump under her skirt. Lighting is a 6 bulb tek and everything is pretty standard. Already I wish I had done a few things differently, and in the past I have made every newby mistake in the books.

Right now it is still rather empty (which is awesome) as it is pretty much everything from my old 33 gallon tank and hopefully will grow in.

Enough jabbering, here she is:









And the whole tank


As you can see, most of everything is still only frags. Maybe I will take more photos when all of the lights are on, as I only had the actinics going. It will be a while before it is full of corals and fishies, but as we all know this isn't a cheap hobby.

Thanks for lookin'.

Nice touch with the black sand. Always wanted to try that, but decided on bare bottom.
