Upgraded


Hi all. Just thought id post some pics of my new tank. I upgraded from a 29 (thread of it on here) last weekend and im pretty happy with how it looks so far. Of course im allready sure i'll be upgrading again to a 75 RR tank in the next 6 months but I had this 55 as a cichlid tank so it was an inexpensive step up for now. Any coments of ?'s welcome.

Very nice! I haven't seen many 55 gal reefs, but yours looks good. That being said, since you are already in a 4' tank, I would go for a 120 instead of a 75 when you upgrade. (Easy to say when it's your money, right)

No atinics, just the MH's for now.

Yeah ive thought about a 120 and its an option but I really like the shorter tanks witch is why I like the 75 over the 90. Thanks for the input.
