Tank looks great...can you give me the rundown on the setup I am thinking about tearing my 90 apart a redoing it bare bottom. I want to go all sps as well...I may sell all my zoas and rics or at least trade them for frags of sps.

Not yet I have a few things going at once. But I have decided the sump will be a 40 breeder with a good size refugium. I will also be plumbing in a oceanic 40 cube that will be full of live sponges and other live filter feeders for added filtration/fun :D

The Setosa is doing great and growing fast. I may get brave and take a frag off of it in a few weeks.

I got this a few weeks ago but it wasn’t much to look at when I got it. It’s starting to come around so I thought it was time to start taking pics

Thanks fishes

I'm trying to get pics of everything going in the tank so I can see how fast they grow and how they change over time. Keeping a tank thread going keeps me from slacking on taking pics and makes it easy to go back and look at my progress. I have a few more things to take pics of but I'm getting there.

I have most of the corals where I want them but still a little moving around to do.
