John & cams balireef

Hi everybody, John and I are from England and we would like to share our tank with you. It's 12'/6'/4' and about a 10000+Ltr system. We apologies in advance for not being able to answer posts often. I am expecting my first child and we both work alot and the tank takes up huge amounts of our time so we will do our best to answer questions. I will start with pics of our fish house and equipment and then the tank.

The tank is about 4 years old, it is a Bali biotope (with two exceptions,1 coral, 1 fish). We have a small Port Jackson Shark and about 150 fish.
 
Hi, Cam. Could you give us some details on the tank, e.g. dimensions, lighting, filtration, etc. all the nitty gritty? Do you have a web site about your tank? Any images of the engine room (operating systems)?

Thx,

Dave.M
