I just bought a 90 gallon tank off of craigslist. It came with the tank, stand, and 40 gallon sump. I just got done cleaning the tank today here is the before and after pic.

Mixed reef. I have 75# of macro rock on its ways and 80# of sand. I thought about doing a bare bottom, but decided to do a thin sand bed instead. I will post pics of the stand tomarrow.

I am thinking about a half circle with a few tunnels with a island in the center. I have a nice piece of live rock in my 55 right now that has a big round base and it has a hook on top with a large stunner chalice on it that's I'm gonna use for the center island. Here's a pic of it.

Got my rock and light in today. I'm hoping my water will be cleared up enough by tomarrow to aquascape the tank and fill it up the rest of the way.

Well the tank is full and got the rock in place. Still not 100% happy with the aquascape, but i can make some changes later. Now let the cycle begin!! Lol
