    So I have been on this forum for a while receiving and giving advice and to thank all of you, this is what my tank has made out to be like after 6 months.. and the second tank that just has sand and liverock is my nano 10G that I set up with sand, water and liverock from an existing 40G that is now upgraded to the 75G you see, the 10G had a short cycle and i will start to stock that tank soon.. enjoy guys and feel free to give some advice or opinions.. this will satisfy the picture police luna :D

    Sorry for the bad quality pics, were taken with my iphone, too bad it doesn't show any frags, I have lots of them..

    well actually i had a 40G running for about 5 months.. and about 4 months into the 40G i bought another 75G that i was suppose to run FOWLR and once the "FOWLR" finished cycling, i changed my mind and made it reef and moved everything from the 40G over :p
    so new 75G reef only been running for about 2 months including the cycle period, and 1 month or so of reef time, but i used mainly water from the 40G and sand and liverock from 40G as well, now everything is stable

    I have the Current USA T5 8x54w unit with UVL bulbs on my 75 and a Current USA 18" T5 unit for the mini reef. In the small tank I have some Xenias and some mushrooms and a couple of mangroves in it.....haven't really put anything into it.
