All sps tanks

Yea I have 2 torches at the end and they move a ton. I have them all set on reef crest mode and I have one side linked together and the other side anti-synced. At some point I want to try hooking them up so that one side will run for 30min then switch and then sometimes they all run.
 
This is such a wonderful thread. Some of the most amazing tanks. Just gorgeous. My tank is still very young, but Im hoping it will fill-in nicely like some of yours. I only have a crummy point-and-click camera, so the full tank shot leaves much to be desired

Thank you very much. I just love this hobby, but am relatively new to reef central. I cant tell you how much I have learned in the short time Ive been lurking... I made all the newbie mistakes by trusting all the companies info etc over the years. My tank is fianlly on the right track! Now its time to grow the sps into mature colonies (finally!!!)
 
I love this thread, some amazing tanks posted.

As my tank consists of mostly SPS (in fact only 2 other corals aren't SPS, but LPS - red/pink chalice and red/yellow gonipora), thought I'd add it to the mix :)

Here is my lil 12g system:

And my favourite coral, ID'd as Acropora Fenneri:

Your SPS look very colorful! Do you have any fish in there?

Thanks LUVSPS :D

Currently no fish, but looking to add a pair of Percular clowns sometime in the next few weeks.

Were you going to do True Percula or False?

I was looking at your tank again. Wow, a vortech in a 12 gallon. That's got to be a record! Is it one of those little mp10's? Way cool.

Will be a pair of true percs :)

...as for the Vortech, it's a MP20 ... very keen to get a MP10, and probably will when I upgrade to a potential 30g system, will run both the MP20 and MP10, unless I can get a great deal on a Tunze 6055, will see what happens.

Anyone notice that the tanks with the extremely colorful colors mostly have blue backgrounds? I believe the blue background allows the color on the corals to contrast very strong and stand out in the pictures.

Interesting point. I've found most tanks with a dark background coupled with T5 lighting provides the best looking images. Again it also comes down to the actual photograph and how it was taken.

I believe that if we all used the exact same camera and settings, all the reef tank photos posted would be very similar looking in terms of colour etc - and would be a much better way to compare tanks... but the odds of that happening are the same as me setting up a massive 500g shallow rimless SPS system tomorrow ;)
 
Here is an 'almost' full tank shot of my 'almost' all SPS tank. It's been about nine months since I moved into the current tank.

Thanks. I have 2 54W aquablue+, 2 blue plus T5s and a 250W Phoenix 14K and a 250W Helios 20K. It sounds like lots of blue but I like it. If you look at the coraline on the rock, you can notice the right side is bluer than the left side. The right side has the Helios.

I just got a new fixture with 2-400W MH and 6T5s. I am switching the MH to 20K Radiums and I will add a couple midday (whiter) T5s.
