Here are a few updated pics. Notice - we no longer have the antique TV.

And this is why we no longer have the old television...a new television.

I'm going to hold out on my antique TV as long as I can. I love this size tank, they are just beautiful!

I added about 50 pounds of Tonga rock today. The water is clouded due to this, but thought I'd share a couple of new photos. (On a side note, I changed the return pump back to the Ocean Runner and am happier with it than the RIO).

Here are a couple of new aquascape shots.
Full on from the right viewing panel...

One of the new pieces of rock...

And another of the new pieces of Tonga rock...

My skimmer is showing me what it's made of right now. With the addition of the new rock, the skimmer is in high gear. Hopefully water quality will not get too bad during all this as the rock came in with a few nice pieces of coral still alive...a couple of different types if either favia, favites, or platygyra.

 

[jnarowe]

you got some really nice pieces.

Awesome setup. I really like your aquascaping. Were you able to stack it that way without any framing material?

I like you new TV, but, the old one was cooler.

A TV like your old one says "I have better things to do than stare at the TV all day... like... stare at my tank all day!".

Cheers.

I really like this tank. It makes me want to do a 4' cube next! By the way, nice work on the live rock. I love how you layed it out. I can't wait to see it stocked up.

great looking tank and aquascape

I have a quick question. What type of substrate did you put in?

 

[REEFING_FIEND]

i love your tank.... ur t.v. needs to be center:rollface:

 

[Rendos]

kar93 - stocking plans are LPS/zoos for corals. Fish include a female bipartitus leopard wrasse, a black leopard wrasse, a pair of true perculas, a mimic tang (pyroferus), and an orange spot blenny, and after that, I am not sure.

mike660r - CaribSea Fiji Pink sand is the substrate.

Here are a few updated pictures. I starting adding corals last week. I also added my first couple of fish...the female bipartitus, the black leopard, and the orange spot blenny are now in the tank and doing great.

Here is my little group of Longspine Cardinals (Apogon leptacanthus).

And my Purple Long Tentacle Anemone for the clowns.

 

[jnarowe]

Looking sweet. Do the cardinalfish spend any time in the water column?

 

[Rendos]

I just put them in...so not yet, but hopefully they will.
