Hi Guys

First time I have posted any pictures of my tank on the forum! I hope it works!!!

I have been keeping marines for about 4 years, started with a smaller tank but upgraded to this one in August 03.

This is a picture of the front of my tank

The calcium reactor is the newest addition to the tank. I will soon be adding a selection of corals, not decided on what kind yet! I do have a colony of mushrooms starting to take over one of my rocks, started with one and have about eight now!

it doesn't move much and feeding is a breeze......just pop some coins in its back and its happy! :lol:


Things people give you when you have a tank!

Craig, thanks again for the comments. The tanks position is quite good, get to see the fish (and eventually the corals) from lots of different angles!
