    Russter's 90 gal

    This is my 55 gal DT with 20 gal sump. I made the cabinet with the option to go to a deeper 4 foot tank later when I get fed up with the skinny 55. Most of the rock is DIY made with crushed oyster shells, sand and portland cement Type 10 that I had setting up for over 3 months. I have two Korilia 2's and a HOB overflow. In the sump is a Rio Hyperflow 12 ,two heaters and a modded SeaClone skimmer (which I am not happy with). I also have a DIY ATO using a garbage can, float switch and an aqualifter. Lights are 4 x 54 watts T5. Right now there is one Clown fish and a Scooter Blenny in the tank with a few mushrooms, button polyps and xenia. I am recieving an order of frags tomorrow so I will post more pics when I have everything set up. Hope you like it!
