    Default 90 gallon tank redo

    So I took down my 90 gallon tank today so that I could replace the crush coral bed with Fiji pink sand. I also wanted to lower the rock work now that I have my 250w MH's on the tank. I'm going to be buying some aqua-mags to put on the back wall. They will house my encrusting montiporas as well as other SPS frags. It's a work in progress and to tell you the truth I don't like the way it looks now. I had to put everything in the tank because I was running low on time. The tank was also cloudy from the new sand. I'm going to redo the rock work a little later this week. Let me know what you guys think and if you have any suggestions on the rock work let me know. Thanks for reading.

    So far it's great. I thought my mp40 was going to blow it around but it doesn't. And my pistol shrimp hasn't blown it up either. Ill let you know if my mind changes once I get my tunez 6045 installed. Waiting to get it for Christmas.

    True. Told the wife it's a work in progress. I always tell her that. Hahaha.

    I'm not that much of a fan of Fiji pink. I have it currently in my 55gal. I got a diamond goby and pair him up with my wave maker and boy it always has the sand blowing around. I love the way it looks though. But when I move in 2 months I'm going to have to move up a grade so I don't have that problem anymore.
    Switched over to the dark side of lighting. LEDs. The force is strong with this one!

    Wanted to share this picture. I worked on the tank today. Had an idea to mount my montipora's onto the back glass. It came out really well and I like how it looks. Helps free up space on the rocks for other corals.
