**Caution: Pictures are quite large, not very dialup friendly. >_<

First, I'd like to thank GeorgeH for the awesomeness lights (if you notice, I have them rigged on there quite well ;) )

Second, the pictures:

Last, what this tank consists of:
Fish: Pair of false perculas, pygmy (cherub) angel, bar goby, firefish goby, blacktail goby, bluedevil damsel, zebra damsel.
Inverts: Cleaner shrimp, 3xTurbo snails, 3xAstria Conehead snails, 3xBumblebee snails, I noticed some of those flat snails the other night, Carpet Anemone (Stichodactyla gigantea), gorilla crab that I haven't seen....
Coral: Xenia, Yellow Polyps, Pink Colt, zoos.
Lights: 65w x2 50/50 PC, 2x110w 14k Pink VHO, 2x110w Actinic VHO (w/ Icecap 660 ballast and Icecap digital timer, *woot*)
Equipment: Biowheel w carbon, HOB refugium w bioballs, mesh filters, and airpump skimmer, 8w UV sterilizer.

..oh, and the substrate is 40lbs livesand 40lbs crushed coral, two pieces of handcrafted limestone, and various pieces of live (some not-so-live) rock.

...I have a 110g with a nice painted black stand I'm upgrading to eventually that the lights will actually be mounted into the canopy... just waiting for the gloss coat to be painted onto the stand -- and I'm not all that anxious to carry a 110g tank up three flights of stairs. :blink
