Very nice.  [thumbsup] With all that Coral that tank probably takes care of itself.

FYI, I bought all my stuff off of craigslist.  Tank is 75 and the sump below is 30 gals that set us back 200 bucks, another 200 for a LOT of rocks and assorted corals, but all in all, we spent about 1200 dollars to get up and running.

From my years of saltwater, let the coral set for 30 or more days before introducing a (a) fish. Another 30 before fish 2 etc., it will pay off in the end. Coral only tanks are cool as well.  ;D

About all I do anymore is clean filters weekly and change out some water to replenish nutrients every other week. Water quality is spot-on.

Ya, that's what we did actually.  The fish that came with the corals and rocks where hardy as goldfish.  The two tangs where added a year later.  It sucks spending 45 dollars on livestock to just have them die :(

I did trim work on a house a couple years ago that had a 4000 gal saltwater aquarium as one of the interior walls. Wish I had pics, but we had to sign non-disclosure agreements just to get on the property.

I set up a 200 gallon saltwater tank in a former workplace, and I thought that was cool.

4000 gallons? You could go scuba diving in there....  [evil]

Nice setup!  [thumbsup]

Used to have a big pseudochromis in mine, but he cashed in around the five year mark.  :(

My tank turned eight in September, and other than the pseudochromis and one yellowtail damsel (I think a tube anemone I had got him), I still have all my original fish.
