Here's mine. I just set this one up at the end of December, so it's a work in progress.
This is the link to the whole album with pics of the whole process from day 1.
Tank shot at 5 weeks.
And the Peppermint shrimp. One of these is going into a different tank after I get a Mantis out of there.

here's a link to my thread from last year. I've since replaced my closed loop with 2 nano streams, but all else is the same.

We already have a beautiful oak stand and canopy that were built by oceanic. I want to light the tank with either a 250 mh and electronic ballast or go all T5. That's up in the air for now. I will have a DIY sump with a closed loop and I was considering a ASM mini G skimmer. I want to go barebottom with this tank. More ideas to come.
Darkxerox- nice tank, thanks for the post. I'm looking to borrow any idea I can. BTW love the RBTA.
vnsofdragn- I think you got a good start there. Post more info if you get the chance. I.E. lighting, flow, skimmer etc.
mntropical- Looks good.
Ctreefer- I'm love your tank. I'm thinking T5 will be the way to go. Do you think the T5 provides enough light for sps?
What are you guys doing for ATO? Do you dose kalkwasser or a CA reactor?

well, i had 2 powerheads in there, but just added a 10 sump with a quiet one pump 3000. i still have to do some more tinkering to get the flow where i wanted (bought the wrong ball valve so its too restricted, aimin for 600gph), but im pleased with the outcome. just gettin all that crap out of the display is worth it. i also waned to do a refugium but i dont think ill beable to due to space restictions. of course a 20t wont fit under the custom built stand by a 1/2", so i had to use the 10 and i dont think theres enough room for a fuge. i had an aqua c remora, but i didnt want anything in the main tank, so i sold it and am waiting on a css 65. ive read good reviews on this site, so for the price, im gonna give it a whirl. lighting will be here on wednesday. got the sunpod mh/lunar fixture. im sooooo excited. this tank was a tranfer from a 55, and i had t5 on that, but couldnt find a t5 fixture that was 30", so i went for the mh, besides i want a clam!! hehe.
everyone elses tanks look great. i love the pipefish!!
