Default Billy"s 120 Gallon Reef Tank
Just got my membership here on Canreef I have been on this site for about two years I have enjoyed lots of the posts and learned alot from everyone on here. I bought my tank and refugium at Bow Valley Aquariums so far very happy with the tanks. Here are some pics of my new tank and the start to my tank journal







I will be adding more pictures in the next couple of days, also I need some live rock guys please pm me if you know of anyone getting rid of there live rock. I am not to excited about puchasing live rock from the stores at $10 per pound.

Nice Set up Billy! Looks like you've put a lot of planning and time into your sump. Wish I could say the same about my 120.
Bought all of my LR off of Canreef, just have to be patient.
Cant wait to see it built out.
Derek

I wish I had a better camera! I got some more live rock today approx. 85 lbs so I have close to 110 lbs now. Found two crabs and three snails also I think there may be some aiptasia at the top of the back rock which is cool I got those two heaters in my tank trying to get my tank to proper temperature I got two 100 watt submersibles and a 250 watt submersible. I am most likely going to move both of my heaters down below after I get the tank to temperatures.
