Here's my two set ups right now. The 12 JBJ is my main baby while the 7 gallon mini bowfront is my "try-hard" attempt at a reef. I sort of stumbled into it with the 12.

The pics are on my photobucket account. Easier to do it this way.

The equipments can easily be seen as well. Only things I'll replace is putting a 50 watt Hydor heater in both tanks and the 7 gallon has a two bulb, 20 inch 50/50 light fixture sitting on top of it.

Both tanks will be softy dominated with few fish. The JBJ has been running for nearly two years.

Let me know if you have suggestions!!

Great lookin' tanks you got there!! Thanks for sharing!!
 
I finally figured out how to post the pics thanks to the beginners forum lol. Enjoy.

Update...I broke down the 7 gallon in favor of a frag tank that I probably won't take pics of for a long while.

I also bought a Miami Hurricane chalice to add to my chalice garden. I love those chalices.

I wish you all could better see my Emeralds on Fire in the back there. I recently moved them up in the column and they're acclimating to the light...which is a 90 watt LED on a 12 gallon JBJ!!

The stone coral in this pic will be leaving the tank soon I think into the frag tank. I'm unsure if a two bulb t5 can support it though. Any thoughts?

This is an un-named chalice I picked up a few weeks ago. I really wish my camera was better so you could really grasp its true color. None of the pics do the chalices justice.
