Hi folks... here's a bit on my tank. It's a6 foot x 18" x 24" 135g tank. A mixed reef... acros, montis, chalices big & small, a few leathers, a touch of brains, a smattering of other goodies like gorgonians, and some LPS.
Fish include three pygmy angels, a neon dottyback, two gobies, a maroon clown, and a new small wrasse. Most of the fish have been with me for 5to 7 years, including a 7 year old green brittle star.
Tech wise, I have a Reefkeeper 2, a Tunze 9010 skimmer, a Tunze 6100 and Korilia nano for flow, and a Iwaki 30 return pump.
The interesting part is the lighting! I am using 8 "bulbs" from Sunbrite lighting. Seven of the bulbs (all are 6 foot length) are their 1st and 2nd gen models, which pack 90 LEDs in each foot. The 8th bulb is one of their new 3rd gen models which use higher output devices... about 6 to 7 per foot.
The bulbs are ultra cool and have significantly reduced my energy usage. I have inserted some tank pics below. It's a cool look which my lousy photo skills don't capture very well. It's like everything is in hi-def. Hard to describe.
