    My 265G has been up and running for 7 months. I added the live rock and sand and let it sit for 6 months with nothing in it. This was after an upgrade from a 90G that went bad. I lost alot of fish since i went to fast got ick and it went down from there.

    So I got the canopy built started the lights up and bought a clean up crew about a month ago.

    The Setup

    265G Glass tank
    3 175K MH
    4 96W blue actinic
    2 6' VHO actinic
    SWC Xtreme 300 Skimmer
