ok but no flames

Aquarium Size: 90G (48"x18"x24") + 17G sump (water volume)
Live Rock: Approximately 80-90 lbs Fiji etc
Fish: Regal Tang, Tailspot Wrasse, Bangaii Cardinal, Powder Blue Tang, Lined Blenny, 2x Vanderbilts Chromis, Scopas Tang, Royal Gramma, Neon Goby
Inverts: 2 Crocea clams, 2 Maxima clams, 1 squamosa clam, tuxedo urchin, various snails, abalone

Some days I'd say I was heavily stocked, other days I'd say moderate. Today I need 3 more vanderbilts chromis

Very high bioload in my 210g reef: 7 yellow tangs, 1 Achilles, 1 Powderblue, 1 Regal tang; Potter's, African Flameback and Cherub dwarf angels; Blue Fairy, Cleaner and Yellow Wrasses; Midas and Red striped blennies. I used to have more fish in there but caught them out (actually, one jumped out so I put it into the 120g Fowlr)

The Fowlr has 1 med, 1 small porcupine puffer; 1 Snowflake moray; 1 Purple, 1 Powder Brown, 1 Regal tang; 1 Coral Beauty and 1 Lemonpeel dwarf angel; and 1 cleaner wrasse.

I have a very high bioload in my tank too, and I have to admit after reading some of the others I don't feel as bad anymore.

I have a 230g display and 110g sump. 200 pounds LR and lots of corals.

Tangs:
1 Lavender
1 Regal
1 Naso
1 Salfin
1 Yellow
1 Clown

Angelfish:
1 Queen
1 Emperor
1 Blueface
1 Coral beauty

Clowns:
2 Perc.'s
1 Saddleback

1 CBB

Gobies:
1 Mandarin
1 Green clown
1 Yellowhead sleeper

5 Chromis

1 Cleaner wrasse

1 Blueline pipefish (refugium)

1 G-smithi (small) mantis (sump)

1 pom pom crab

1 GBTA

1 Feather duster

Some snails and hermit crabs

One very large really good ASM skimmer

Ok so maybe I do feel bad, anyone want to set up a 1000g in my basement However I will say this: there is lots of swimming room as well as hiding places, all the fish are fairly healthy and they all get along really well together.

*Update: we added a 28g long zoa tank to our current system and it has 1 yellow clown goby, 1 bi-colour blenny, 1 sixline wrasse and 1 clam
