awesome,i love shallow tanks.i think my next tank build is gonna be a 8'x30''x18
 
That is crazy! More pics and info!
 
Thanks everyone! The tank is about a month old now and doing great! Lots of purple taking over! Livestock includes A large school of Chromis (4 different types), Carpenter Wrasse, Lubbock's Wrasse, Female Leopard Wrasse, Stary Blenny, Canary Blenny, Indigo dottyback, Platinum Clown Pair. Addidng 7 purple Queen Anthias on Thursday!
 
Forgot my little six line wrasse...since I never see him lol. The tank has approx 300lbs of live rock to make the small species I keep and plan on keeping feel right at home. It will be polyp and LPS dominated and have only small species of fish.
 
Beautiful!!

info

This looks like a cool build.I've read a few books.went to some pet stores.thank you for info and telling me about this site.I will enjoy.I'm really excited but I'm a very patient person.it says in some books people are so hurried to get their tank going that it turns out to be a disaster.so when I get mine going I will surely post....
 
Also would love to see more pics. And I can't believe you can run a tank with all the equipment upside down like that. :tongue:
