400 gallon project

Thanks all....As Snappy said..."another year"...

I'm personally very surprised with how it looks at this point. I did not expect it to look like this after 1 year. I figured it would take 2 or 3 years before it started to look quite nice, but coral grows a lot quicker in this tank than they ever did in my old one.

I don't know... I think those bar stools look kind of empty to me.
Yes, after some thought I think they need some butts on them. I will gladly offer mine to cover one of them at anytime you need.

And just think how cheap refreshments would be for ya.....we'd be too busy looking at the tank to worry about having drinks!

How has your fish room changed since you first set up this system, or has it? When you planned out your tank room did you over plan, or leave extra space for future unknown improvements?

I made only 1 change to the original plan, and that was the addition of the refugium. That used up just about all the flexible space that I had to work with.

I have the ability to improve the skimmer, provided I stay with an in-sump model. That area was designed to accomodate a skimmer up to 7 feet tall, 18" square. Outside of that, it is really difficult to make many changes back there because everything is crammed in. Right now, it is working, so I'm not inclined to make any changes.
