I've never posted any full pictures of my tanks before. Not sure why. Anyway, here they are. Everything is real low tech. I know they're not the most amazing tanks in the world, but they're my babies. I can sit in my swivel recliner in the man cave/family room and gaze adoringly at each one. Comments are absolutely welcome, just be gentle.

They are each lovely in a different way. What size is the FW angel tank?
125 Gallon. My favorite fish, a chocolate cichlid is hiding under the anubius on the left.

If you saw the equipment I have under the 125 reef, you'd think "garage sale!"

The larger reef is a 125? I have a 180g and use three black box lights mounted 90 degrees differently than yours. What settings do you use for them?

Impressive tanks man! I love the aquascaping in your fresh water tanks. I myself have 2 small fresh water tanks a 5gal pea puffer tank and the other a 10gal betta, guppies,neon tetras tanks. And of course a 46bow coral that I'm working on and my new EVO 13.5.

My lights are second hand. I have the two outside ones set with the full spectrum's turned down as far as they will go without turning off, and the blues at about 80% for my lower light lower flow corals. The two center ones are set to about 85% full spectrum and 100% blue for the higher light/flow corals. It took some doing to set my power heads just the way I wanted them. The acro's really seem to dig it.

The auguascaping in that 46 is AWESOME! I've always wanted a pea puffer tank. Great tanks.
