    Ok, this tank has been up and running since about June 2011. We switched from an acrylic 75 on a crappy 2x4 stand. I'll put up a picture so you all can appreciate how happy I am to have this tank! We now have a 90 gallon Oceanic with the starphire glass which I LOVE.

    I keep meaning to start a tank thread, but have not been on the forums much this lately until this week.


    The equipment:

    90 gallon Oceanic
    Sweet solid cherry stand
    ADHI Refugium, 35 gallon
    Huge Reeflow pump – hybrid something or other
    Reef Octopus Needle Wheel Skimmer up to 150 gallons
    Reefkeeper controller
    2 x 250 w MH: Phoenix 14k and two T5 UVL 454 actinics
    2 Koralia 1050's.

    Tank stock list:

    Blue Hippo Tank
    Naso Tang
    Melanarus Wrasse
    Purple Firefish
    Neon stripe goby
    Tail Spot Blenny
    Marbled star banished to the sump
    Fire Shrimp
    Skunk Shrimp
    4 Peppermint shrimp
    Conch
    Tons of other clean crew

    I just made the commitment to buy a Vortech MP40 this weekend. SO excited!!!

    First, this is what we got rid of!!!! :D

    And lastly, the most recent video. Now I have a place to post pictures that I need to be taking this weekend. A lot of stuff has really grown out a ton since these pics were taken.

    Nice collection you got!! I wish my 6 months old talk was like that.

    Oh you're gonna love the MP40! Within... 6 months you gonna want one more :devilish:

    Thank you!! My prior tank had been up for over a year, and I just moved everything. So even though I've only had this tank for 6 months, it kind of had a jump start.

    I'm borderline obsessing over getting this MP40 this weekend. Can't Wait! And I kind of already want another one, I'll just be careful to not voice that opinion to my husband for another 6 months! LOL

    Thank you!

    I took some new pictures last night. I started right after the halides went out, so some have the flash and look bleached out. I ended up turning them back on to get some better shots.
