    Great looking tank! Very clean and everything looks extremely happy. What type of lighting are you using? Is that a Potters Angelfish? Have you had any trouble with him in a reef?

    Thanks everyone! Steve, I went MH for this setup. I'm running a 250w Radium 20K bulb in a Lumenmax 2 pendant driven by a Galaxy select-a-watt ballast. You can check out the first post in this thread, it has my whole set-up.

    And yes, that's a Potters Angel, I love that fish. I was lucky enough to get one that is not a picky eater. It picks here and there at things but never does any real harm or anything like that.

    New pic, you can see my crazy Antler Crab in the front & the pic came out really nice. It's so hard to capture the exact look of the lighting but this pic is pretty much how it looks to my eyes in person:

    Looks awesome man. I'm in the planing stages of my new tank and I hope it turns out as good as yours. I decided to go with a longer tank instead of a bigger cube. I'm missing some extra space for longer escapes :p

    some random shots I took today. I got some new additions, a purple Gorgonian & a new Ocellaris since my little one jumped a few days ago, bummer. Also finally installed my mp10es on the backwall and got it all nice and clean looking with the wiring, looking forward to playing around with the modes. I also am going to be setting up my Tunze ATO in the next few days. I want this thing to be its own self sustaining system :):
