    As said i'm new to the forum, and to reefing really I just got into it along about 3 months ago when I started from a buddy of mines 55G reef tank, from there I was hooked and decided to upgrade to this 90G tank. I know these pictures aren't the best because we had just spot fed and most everything is closed :-/. As soon as I can I will put some better ones up with everything opened wide for you guys to take a look at. For the most part I'm still learning with coral so I'll be honest I don't know everything by name quite yet but i'm working on it!

    Here are the pictures and heres a list of what I know is in the tank.

    Fish
    Clown Tang
    Red Sea Sailfin Tang
    Yellow Tang
    2 Clarkii Clownfish
    Blue Damsel
    Yellow Tail Damsel
    Pajama Cardinal
    Lawnmower Blenny
    Total = 9

    Inverts
    Multiple Snails & Turbo Snails
    Multiple Blue Legged Hermit Crabs
    2 Horse Shoe Crabs
    2 Long Tentacle Anemones

    Corals (That I can name sorry!)
    Pectinia
    Orange Digi
    Multiple Types of Zoanthids
    Orange, Blue, and Green Ricordea
    Purple, Green, and One Orange Mushroom(s)
    Hairy Mushrooms
    Small Frogspawn w/ 2 Heads
    Leafplate Monti Frag
    Yellow Scroll w/ Zoanthids Growing w/ it
    Candy Cane Frag 3 Heads
    Red Chalice
    Unknown Black Sponge Tube?
    An Unknown Purple Chalice w/ Green eyes.
    Flower Tree Coral
    Orange Monti Coral?​

    Equipment​

    Lighting
    T5 4 Actinic's 2 White's
    Night Lights - 4 Blue LEDS - 2 White LEDS

    Sump & Refugium
    40G of SW
    AquaC EV-180
    Chaeto / Miracle Mud & Live Rock

    Powerheads
    1 Koralia 750GPH - Right Side
    2 Koralia 600GPH - Back of Tank

    The rest of the equipment is not relevant because it will be changing hopefully in the coming weeks.

    It's a standard 90G tank, 48" x 18" x 24", by the way if you click on the pictures it will send you to a link with them larger so you can see things quite a bit better.

    Welcome to 3reef! Great looking 90 you have there! Some of those corals must have been transfers from the 55. I like that tuber! It cupped out very nice for you! I have a frag of one exactly like it and hope mine does the same!
