Hello fellow reefers

Finally got my 120 up and running for about 2 months now, got some fish in the tank (will post pictures when I get better photos of them) along with some coral. Have an Apex running the tank along with the new ATK from Neptune to the system topped all.

Hope you all will enjoy the following photos

Looks like you're off to a good start. I like the acan :) What fish did you get? Is it a standard 4x2x2? (That's what I have)

Yes its a stanard 4x2x2 and I love it (though sometimes need a little ladder to get to some parts of the tank). Current stock is: Christmas wrasse, Blue Sapphire Damsel, Engineer Goby, and Skunk Cleaner Shrimp. Everyone is currently eating and happy
 
Oh, engineer gobies are fun. You put your rock in before your sand? Did you do anything extra to secure it? I know those guys can do some serious excavating.
 
Yes I did put rock before sand and secured everything. And he moved a decent bit of sand from his cave
 
Time for an update...going to be changing out my current eshopps sump to a maybe a trigger sump, updating the pump to a reef octopus varios 6, and installing a compact roller mat so no more filter socks! Will post pictures once everything comes in and gets installed
 
I know its been a while since I posted a tank update, finally updated the skimmer to a Lifereef Skimmer (eventually will upgrade sump to a lifereef sump as well but need to get an electrician more on that in a min), though have to get a different pump from the Magdrive, little too loud.

Planning on next year moving the tank to a different room, with a new stand, sump, and pumps, but to do that need to get an electrician to upgrade circuit box and add a new circuit for the tank. Will post pictures later
