    The sump is a custom built acrylic 48x20x16, I really like how my rockwork turned out.
    The lights are a ati 10x80 powermodule...working out awesome, i bought a par meter last friday, my par on the sand is 350 in the center of the tank and 300-320 on the left and right hand side, and the lights are about 31" away from the sand. I havent lost a coral or fish since the transfer from the 90.

    Sweet. It's looking great. I'm already thinking of my next tank, but it won't be for a year or two.

    If you only knew.....;D I only want a 180g. Honestly, I'm all for gear and bigger and better, but I don't want a huge setup. I have plenty of other money pits that need my attention as well.

    I bought my 90g from a co worker because it was a good setup....and "didn't need anything". The only thing that is original is the tank and the stand.;D;D;D Then doubled the cost in additions......;D Preachin' to the choir Brother.
