    It's been about 2 weeks since I did a slight upgrade from 60G to 90G. Also went from everything HOB to a nice Sump with a much better Skimmer.

    It's a Reef Octopus 150, custom acrylic sump with tons of room and capacity.
    I'm going to also add a Phosban reactor as well down the road.

    Stocking
    Yellow Tang
    Blue Hippo
    Foxface Rabbit
    Banggai Cardinal
    Purple Firefish
    Flame Angel
    Pink Lyretail Anthias
    Pink Spotted Watchman Goby
    Rose Skunk Clown

    - Adoption is lined up for the Blue Hippo. When I got him for the 60, he was the size of a penny, and I was told "He should be fine..."

    Coral, and Hermits as well as a Serpent Star.

    What do ya think?

    I wanted a more open look. In the old tank I had 3 islands, connected. I want to leave the middle open.

    The pics are small, but they're much bigger in reality. Not sure why they shrunk.

    Even with the extra 6 inches front to back, when you're scaping you're already like "Man I wish I had more room..."

    But this is probably my last upgrade baring a lotto win 8)

    I added the flame angel and rose skunk the last 2 weeks, done with fish.
    I was happy that there was absolutely no cycle or anything with the changeover.
    And no deaths.
