So I am putting a tank thread up. My 120 has been up and running since Oct 2011.

Some older pics of my 120gal from 01-17-2012

I got some Orange Gels to put in front of the camera lens.

Here is a current shot of the tank today 01/25/2014:

Back in June I added the Bubble Magus and started dosing. I believe dosing daily has really helped growth and color.
I started with the Bulk Reef Containers, but then I needed them for mixing and for the manual pumps for the other two tanks.
So this is what I ended up with:

Today I decided to step it up with new containers from AquaBox:

Each one holds 1 US Gal. After all, that is how we mix it even if I do dose in ML, I mix in cups & gal.
Here is the new look. Much better. :beer:

Really nice. I've got a 120 that's been up for about 15 months.... Would love to have a sump area like that!

Finally got the 60 cube plumbed into the fish room so I can use the same sump tat is on the 120.
Using a Jebo12000 pump, I went thru the wall behind the tank which goes into a closet. Went straight down to the fish room and into the sump.
