I've been setting this puppy up for a couple months and it's finally presentable enough to share a little bit. The rock cured while I was in Hawaii so I came back to a tank that was ready to go. My current residents are 3 green banded gobies and a black ocellaris clown. I'm undecided who the rest of the residents will be, but I know I'll have a bunch of fish cause, as you'll see below, I have seriously overdone the equipment.

Tank stats are:

90g perfecto/marineland cornerflow
Sea Life Systems berlin 200 sump
H&S 110 in-sump skimmer
Mag 9.5 return
6x Icecap T5 retro
2X hydor 2s
1x hydor evo 1400

In the short future I'll be installing an eheim ecco 80 as a carbon/phosban/purigen/etc reactor and will have a light on the sump for some cheatomorpha.


Here's just a couple pictures:

Excellent rockwork and the equipment list is impressive too.

thats a beautiful looking tank you have there!

Thanks guys! Hopefully I don't lose the desire to keep up with this tank after the fun part is done (setup etc.). Since I work at the LFS, I sometimes don't want to come home to more "work". This is actually part of a consolidation, so it should be less work after I take down all my other tanks. So I should be good. That's the theory at least. In the end I plan to have just the 90g and the 50g.....though I don't know what I'm going to do with the 50.
