Unfortunately?, there is not much build to document. It's a rimless 45g tank. The stand is from the jbj, but painted to match our mid century decor. It's rockin' an AI hydra26 light, and a vortech mp10. Roughly 25 pounds of live rock and an inch of sand. A couple weeks ago i added a seachem tide 55 filter because I was sick of the surface film that develops. I hate the look of the filter on the tank but I enjoy the clean surface.

Few more random pics from today. The tank is mostly zoas and LPS. A added a few acro's just to see how they'd do. A couple look good, a couple not so much.

- purple firefish
- lawnmower blenny

Yes, the tang will outgrow the tank. It was 1.5" when I got it. In another inch or two, it will be returned to my LFS.
