Well a little back ground history. I ran freshwater for 5 years successfully bred freshwater angelfish and got bored of freshwater. Started off with a 55 gallon salt tank with a 55 sump. After a month got a killer deal on the 210g. Came with sand, rock, stand, sump, chiller, tank, protein skimmer, pumps, and a few other things.

I still have to get more rock to fill in the back wall.

Ok no more talk here are a bunch of pics lol.

The tank is coming along nicely. How long has it been setup? What equipment are you running? What livestock do you have?
 
Looking good bro! :D

I have 2 Mag7 pumps, 1 korilea power head and 1 unknown still need to get 1 more, using a marineland skimmer till I set up my berlin skimmer, have a heater and that's it.

How is the copperbanded butterfly with the corals?
 
The tank is great the corals are great and so are the fish. My CBB loves mysis shrimp. He loves it so much he steals pieces right from my fungia. My midas blenny is also a terror and likes to bite my arm when I'm trying to feed the corals.
