I'm gonna use this tank as my sump

The good news is, my girlfriend requested I put a small tank in the living room when I move the big tank downstairs because she wants to have her "nemo's" in the living room with her.

So, I get to have two tanks now

So I've had a chance to see Shane's tank a few times now, but I finally got around to taking my camera. Those pictures above don't do justice on what his tank looks like, so hopefully these updated pictures will:

The most magnificant sight! Both clowns, hosted in his zoo's! Can you see the second one on the left?


Peekaboo


Plate Coral


Clam










Full Tank Shot. It was a little hard to get one with the reflection from the window.






I didn't name the rest, because I don't know much about SPS yet.

Thanks Amish!

Now, for anyone looking at this thread - any tips for me on how to get the last of the floaties out of my water?

I run two powerhead filters with pads changed every 3 days and I run carbon in them as well (also changed every 3 days).

I have my aqua c ev 180 pullin out some good gunk, about a cup or perhaps more per day.

But I still have tons of floaties

What am I doin wrong?

Just thought I'd give my two cents on the rock formation. I think an archway clear over the top from the left mound to the right would complete your tank. Looks good though!

That is an absolutely fantastic set of pictures! What a beautiful tank!

Thanks!

As for the other member's question about the floaties, I have a removable polishing filter I use when things need a bit of a tidy. It has made the water sparkle! I jusy hang it for a day or so and pull it off when it's done!

That is an awsome tank. When you added the scwd to your system what did you estimate/observe it added to your total head pressure. I'm just trying to figure out what to expect as far as losses.
Thanks,

- Chad
