How many gallons? Very nice! I have been in the hobby for 30 years, have always like the movement of soft corals and the colors.

Rtn is making me go soft...but I always liked them anyway...

Such an awesome soft coral set up. Did I spy a few SPS in the pictures too? I started with a mixed reef and always love the motion that soft corals give to the tank.

Cheers,
Alex

Thanks everyone

beautiful tank, what bulbs are you using? this tank reminds me of the plenum system tank in Michael Paletta's Ultimate Marine Aquarium book.

Beautiful! I love softy tanks because I love the movement of the corals, that's the whole part of keeping coral that fascinates me

Do you mind posting your maintenance routine?

I think softy is the route I'm going aswell. Don't get me wrong Sps tanks are awesome, but I love the movement of softy tanks!

Nice Tank! I too have switched to softies.. phase 1 was bulk florida and yuma rics... now my next step is leathers then gorgs once the tank matures a bit longer... Big problem is I can't find anyone online who has a nice, affordable leather collection. PM me vendor please if you happened to get most of yours from one place.

Gorgs will be easy to get from one place.... but nice leathers have been tough
