After all my research I came up with a Yellow Eye Kole and a Yellow Tang in a 75g which might be at the limit if not over the limit?
I will be adding my pair of clowns with their huge anemone, two pairs of Pistol Shrimps and Gobys (hoping I can get them to sit at opposite ends of the tank), cleaner wrasse, cleaner shrimp, coral branded shrimp and 3 blue green chromis which are all coming from my 34 and 10


I'm also thinking to make myself a algae scrubber over an added refugium as the piping is already plumbed for a reactor or refugium - so how is the scrubber working out for you? I've read a ton of info on this and it looks to be very appealing.

Also how much rock do you have in that 90? for some reason it looks to be a little on the low side but it looks cool with the landscape.

Don't do the algae scrubber, go with 2 reactors for bio pellets and GFO then throw some carbon in some nylon and You wont ever go back...

I have had 3 good sized tangs in my 90 for months now with no issues. I even had them before the 90 in my 55. I do realise that I will have to sell them or upgrade one day....

Glad to see an update from you. It has been so long I thought you had left the hobby or gone over to fresh water tank.

Looking good!

Shut her down last fall,

Light fixture died... Couldn't get replacement for a few weeks (slacked) only had 2 t5 bulbs over it..... Then bought some nice new LED's just to watch my SPS slowly die over a 2 month period.....

DON'T LET YOUR SPS GO WITH OUT LIGHT FOR ANY AMOUNT OF TIME!!

Then I had a little contained flood in the stand... which submerged the power supply to my new LED's..... which sparked and caught fire...

Luckily my wife was home but unluckily she went straight for the extinguisher....

DON'T LEAVE ANY CORDS WHERE THEY CAN GET WET!!!!

That same night I brought all live stalk into blueworld aquariums....

FML

All well, can anyone say upgrade? Planning and spending is the best part anyways.... right?

Thanks for looking.
