That is simply the most stunning tank i have ever seen, one incredible selection fish.
Hope everything goes well with your new tank, and specs like filtration and size of tank would be great.

I think thay will dissapear one day with that lion fish :lol:

Lovely set ups, by the way :thumbsup:

[rocky1]

THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP. YOU MADE MOST OF THE MESS IM ONLY THE TEABOY :P

[abyss]

worth all the hassle of sorting them out though.........

[chronic2005]

rocky can we have the specs plz

[GaryM]

Great selection of lovely(agressive) fish, but i can not help thinking that 3 foot of space will lead to problems territorial wise. Reef tank looks real good some more pics would be nice.

[chronic2005]

Looks the same to me garry, but his fish look happy so congradualtion to him. :bow: :dance:

[sgl101]

Reef Tank Looks Great

But the Fish only seems way to small for the stocking, be prepaired to upgrade or move on some of these fish Shortly

Very Nice Tank

You seem to have the best of both worlds there & in one room as well

I think I see a spot where you can add another coral in your reef :lol: :lol:

Very Nice
