Some tank pics. (one year into my SPS obsession)

[HBtank]

So, I was looking at some old pics after uploading some new ones tonight, and I realized I got my first SPS corals about a year ago.

My current tank is about 20 months old, with some rock and corals that are ~6 months older.

Anyways, this is my first reef tank. And my only one. I just recently stopped stocking, though I might find room for just one more My only real plans for anything else are for a frag tank.

Anyways, I hope you like them.

And a couple close ups that my crappy camera actual got in focus tonight..

The beginning

Hey HBtank
The tank looks superb man! Great job.
Your sig cracks me up every time I read it. :lol:
Whats even funnier is that a friend of mine built his own 180 gallon tank and the bottom is Starfire. LOL

Awesome tank and colors!

Were those taken under all of the lights , or actinic/blue only? If so, could you please take some pics with all of your bulbs on?

Once again, gorgeous tank, you've done a great job!

Was never really impressed with the frag/mags, but the birdsnest you have on that totally changed my mind!
Very nice tank, that Mycedium colony on the left is INSANE! Definately flaunt that sucker over in the LPS forum if you havent already, I know theyd all love see it! Keep up the good work!
