This is my first reef tank. It's a 90 gallon.
This is just the rockwork, I haven't finished the corals yet or hung the metal halides. Thanks for looking.
The picture is a bit hazy due to either me stirring the sand while messing around, the lights being off in the house, and/or the algae I haven't cleaned off the front :o

Thank you,
I'll be posting a new picture that is more clear with the caps all mounted here after the weekend.

I'm assuming that's a compliment? :)
I guess it depends on which pier.
I'll be hanging the halides this week.

Realized I never updated this thread.
Might as well post a full front shot so I have something to look at when I try to rebuild the structure tomorrow (although I'm tempted to place more branchwork on the bottom).

If I don't identify something, it probably because I don't know what it is. Please feel free to let me know what's in my tank.
It all basically came with the LR.

Here is my orange monti cap (right?)
When it feels better it will have a pink ridge.

This will have a lavendar ridge once it heals.

still figuring my camera settings out, but I thought the chromis looked cool so I kept this photo, too
I hope everyone enjoyed my photos. Please keep me in your thoughts while I'm tearing it down in the morning!
