THE BEST IT'S EVER BEEN!

It's Friday so let's make it easy and fun! Eye Candy will be a must in this thread as well!

Today I want to talk about and SEE the best reef aquarium you've ever owned in terms of how it looked to you! It's hay-day if you will. Your reef in it's prime or the best reef of your past. Maybe your reef now is the best it's ever been? So here we go!


1. Post a photo of the best reef aquarium you've ever owned or your best reef in it's prime!

2. Is your current reef aquarium the best you've ever had and if so why? PICS PLEASE!



@DGee's beautiful aquarium that probably ranks up with the best of the best!

My current tank, Waterbox 70.2 is the best setup I have ever had. A decade ago I had a 220 mixed reef plumed into a diy sump and frag tank. It was about 400 gallons. What I have now is so much better in almost every way. The only down side is real estate, but that’s ok. I love my current tank.

My old 40g was crazy good with lots of color.

My new 90g tank is just 6 months old and there is still a lot of room for corals to grow. This is an old shot and the rockscape has been drastically changed, but it will be another 12 to 18 months before it's as good as my old tank.

they say that a picture is worth a thousand words, a video must be worth a million words. Must see this video to understand where we're at.



And right now yes we're at our zenith when it comes to these corals. What we did this time is install a large protein skimmer, and add Pacific oysters again, add activated carbon on the discharge of the return pump, like 5 lb of activated carbon. We feel we're on top of the world right now

The tank itself is the best as it is a new acrylic. As far as they coral life and growth, it will be, but it is still young. Here are some old shots of my old 210g and then a video link of a couple weeks ago. I have even had changes since then. :)

This is my old tank, in it's fairly new beginning and happy coral. I have a Red Sea now... but brought in something bad that brought in an infestation, (new tank on bottom, work in progress)
