Now that i have a couple minutes i thougth i would describe my tank a little. It is a aga 120 with overflows. for lighting i have 2 ice cap electronic ballast firing 250 bulbs. For flow i have a mag 12 on return, three maxijets 1200's on a wavemaker, one tunze 6100 on a single controler, and a tunze 6000. For a skimmer i have a euro reef rs-80. Filtration i have 170lbs life rock, 120lbs live sand, with a 55 gallon home made sump with about 20 gallons of water in it, and a 45 gallon fuge with live sand, life rock, and cheato in it. In my fuge I also have a part sectioned off for frags. I have T-5 lighting over my frags, i wanted to see what kind of growth I got out of my T-5's comparted to my halides. If anybody has any coments on my set up or any questions, just let me know. I will be posting some pics of my setup as soon as I take some more pictures. Let me know what you guys think

How long have you had the tank set up?

Looks nice Chris. You'll need to post some whole tank shots when you get a change.

Looks nice Chris. I'll be interested in how your t5's are doing for growth. From what I've read they have some huge advantages to MH. If you're coming to the May meeting (at my house) you can check out the gate valve mod for your skimmer, it gives great control!

I don't know what happened to all of my pictures. I think that when I deleted my attachments to load on some more pics, that is what made it go away. So if anybody has any tips on how to post pictures better just let me know thanks

Chris
