i'm going into highschool this fall, and i'm setting up my 20g reef in April. i want to see some tanks done by people in high school and below. lets see 'em :D
 
I should try to find a photo of the 20G I had when I was in highschool, but to be honest It wasnt that great... in fact it was scary.. All I remember was when it was time to empty the tank out, I thought i was going to be sick:lol:
 
same here, i could dig out the photos of my 30gal high school tank.....but why? it sucked very few corals....and the corals it had were not super speical or anything
 
heres when i had first started up my tank...

will post some pics later on today of how the tank looks once the lights turn on. as of right now im running 2 250watt EVC tech MH retros w/ a 14k EVC bulb. for filtrating i have a 20g sump/fuge with a little no name skimmer that works wonders and a return pump pushin approx 350gph for circulation i only have to powerheads that push 300gph and thats about it. good luck and i know its very hard to get going when your in school so the best of luck to you.
 
Damn, I have a video of my highschool tank from about 10 years ago, but no pics. It was alright, argi angel, goniopora, elegance, blue shrooms, green stripes. All with 3 of those little Osram 2x9w watt fixtures.
 
the reason i would like to see high school student tanks is to see what you can do with a tank when you can't neccesarily pay aton of money for massive skimmers and lights(ok, so that's steriotyping, but who's gonna care :p)

h2joe, sweet tank
 
This is my tank, reef for about 4 months now, im getting T5 as soon as i can afford them, i haev about 80 bucks in savings, adding more from dog sitting, Its hard though cuz i have to blow 5 bucks here or there to go to movies or chill with some friends, its easier to go chill at somone house with a few ladies;)

BTW im a freshman

thanks alot.. i liked it too but it just wasnt very sturdy so i changed it lol.. planning a 180? where will u get the money for that?!?!
 
I will post pics when I get a chance but I have lucked out and got a job at a saltwater fish store. my setup isn't bad with an outer orbit light, deltec ap600 protein skimmer, and ATO. For fish I have a Chevron tang, a possum wrasse, spotted mandarin, a green chromis, fishers angel, 4 sexy shrimp, a midas blenny and 2 fire shrimp. Its all in a bare bottom 54 corner bow. It is a big stocking list but all my caps and acros are showing huge growth.


Thanks
