Buildup of a 90 gallon Reef (picture intensive)

[thrlride]

I think they are 30" x 24".

I was looking at getting a 225 with stand and canopy for $600 but decided I didn't want to fight a 30" tank so I am going for the 180.

I was looking at doing either a glasscages tank with low-iron glass for $780 shipped or I can get a RR AGA 180 for $600 shipped. The price difference isn't tremendous, I'm just scared of glasscages.

I'll work on some drawings. Do you think I just just spam this thread with the 180 stuff or start a new one?

hey thrl, is there a stocking list or planned stocking list in this thread at all?

 

[thrlride]

I don't have anything written down mainly because I really don't know the majority of the names.

My future stocking is getting somewhat limited though as I am running out of room. My aquascaping isn't perfect for packing in the coral.

He's a cool little guy. I added a green one but he dissappeared the night I put him in.

Is this one bleaching a little or did you get it that way?

I'm going to venture and say that is new growth. These next pictures span back to when I got him:

Thanks Lunch!

I <i>ALMOST</i> hate to tear it down for the 180 when that is built. Things are growing so nicely!

I'm not showing off, I'm just sharing.

What's odd is that it doesn't get hardly any new posts, just the regulars that have been in the thread all along.

I have been following along from the beginning (just silently). Mainly I read everything and am still learning so much from everyone.
I have enjoyed the Buildup very much. You have had amazing growth from your corals and hope that I can have as much success someday soon as well.
Keep the pictures coming ... they give us "silent regulars" something to dream about.

i know you aren't showing off...just saying its SOOOO nice
