Arite had some free time, so i thought i wud post some pics of my 55G reef they're in chronological order, from when we first set it up, i have two more reefs, but thought i wud post this one first. I cant say it's my favorite, cuz i love all my tanks. They're like kids, u cant tell them who's the favorite or they'll start getting jealous, haha lol.

I'm sure, can be a cool biotype tank though. Usually nothing some tangs can't keep in check if you have a big enough tank. :)

Lots of neat activity going on in there!

I really like those red zoas in the last pic. I've got some reds zoas that I inherited. They haven't made up their mind about growing in my tank, though.

I noticed a Rio pump in your tank. Don't these get a bad rap or have they updated? Usually I've heard people complain that they break down and corrode and become electrical hazards.

lol yeah, they were givin to me along with a tank (and way to powerful for a 55G), i only used them to cycle the tank, i figured too much current wud help the oxegyn levels. Did well, it cycled in 11 days.:)
