    Hello fellow enthusiasts. My list of tanks running include:

    210 FW W/sump/balls with 1 big boy wolf cichlid

    55 FW w/canister more or less a medic tank holding young male wolf and a bastard female as you'll see in one of the pics she's definately a bastard.

    35 FW eclipse built in filter 2 jacks and 2 texas cichlids

    25 SW 400 emporer filter w/ 1 power head 2 blue dams, 1 awesome striped dam, firefish, clown, camel shrimp and hermit cuc.

    and

    my project 105 SW wet/dry balls and old skimmer
    all except the camel shrimp and some hermits are going in the big tank.

    As of right now im having a hard time arranging the rock. I'm trying to accomplish 2 tall points that look like a tall gap, island cave, flat pieces thrown in deal... that looks decently natural. After I figure the rockscape I'm getting rid of the wet/dry in favor for a refugium/sump then I'll add the livestock. Thanks for reading. MS

    Ah c'mon, Steve. I love hermits! Am I all alone out here in that? If you feed them, they'll love you back! ;)

    Welcome to 3reef! Your tanks look great! For the rock, I would try making it not so vertical. If you slope it some you will have much more options when placing coral (believe me, you'll be getting them soon enough!)
