here it is today just after cranking up the 2nd MP 60 a little sandy right now but clearing up. 36 inch side looking down 72 inches. It will not hold the Photobucket edit turning it sorry.

Equipment, on right is the original fuge/sump with 2 reactors GFO and Bio Pellets gravity feeding into second sump 800 watts of heat, Diablo 2500 skimmer and return pumps. on the front right is 20 gal ELOS ATO ATO. Total water is about 300 gallons I figure about 70 - 100 gallons displaced by rock and sand.

A little closer you can see the sand

Picked up a Sailfin Tang Clown Fairy Wrass and new Clam along with a pretty nice Staghorn yesterday. I have lost 5 small fish in the move thru my own stupidity trying to make things happen too fast. Gerwin and Roger went way above :clap: and covered the losses was not in any way a problem from the shop and they covered it anyway. GREAT PEOPLE to do business with. Our Yellow Tang is very unhappy with the Sailfin guess we will see what the next couplemof days bring. So far the Sailfin has not fought back just holds those fins out and cruises away. Will post pics soon.

Beautiful. What is the porthole looking thing on the back of the tank, that looks like a bulkhead?

At Scott's request a couple of new pic's everything is settling nicely even after having to do a 70% tear out to catch the Blue Face I couldn't live without and my Coral couldn't live with.....
Still have ton's of space for SPS.

I still have not figured out how to capture the depth of the tank in an image. Aquascaping is completly different no matter where you look at it.
The 3 foot sides are scaped as well as both 6 foot lengths. Then I decide to change something and everything is affected.
As always I am open to suggestions
