    Default 90 gal Tank Thread

    I told Ace I would start this thread when he drilled my tank and it has been a while, so I figured I'd better get to it.

    First the detailed specs (special thanks to MrCob for the layout/formatting of the specs. He made it look so nice in his thread that I couldn't help but imitate it):

    TANK/STAND (I had a CPR BakPak skimmer on the tank, but the pump died and I haven't gotten around to getting the parts to modify my MaxiJet 1200 yet)
    -90 gal tank 48"X18"X24"
    -~120 lbs sand (mixed live and dry).
    -~100 lbs Live Rock
    -Light oak colored stand

    SUMP/FUGE
    -30 gal long DIY sump/fuge
    -CSS 65 Skimmer (Soon to be upgraded)
    -30 lbs aragonite live sand
    -Live rock rubble
    -Cheatmorpha

    OVERFLOW/RETURN
    -Ace made Calfo overflow with 2" plumbing
    -Mag 9.5 return pump

    LIGHTING (Soon to be supplemented/upgraded with T5s)
    -256 Watt Current-USA SunPaq PC (2x 10K/6700k 64 watt 2x 460 nm/420 nm watt actinic) lighting

    DISPLAY FLOW
    -Return line (haven't completely finished this yet)
    -Koralia 3 powerhead

    FISH (despite the appearance in a pic below, there is no longer a blue damsel in this tank).
    -2x Ocellaris Clowns
    -1x Neon Gold Goby

    INVERTS (I have some work to do on the cleanup crew still)
    -1x Skunk Cleaner Shrimp
    -1x Green Mythrax Crab
    -2x Brown Mythrax Crabs (1x light and 1x dark)
    -4x Red-legged Hermit Crabs
    -9x Nassarious Snails
    -1x Trochus Snail
    -1x Mexican Turbo Snail

    CORAL (nothing to get excited over because I'm just beginning to experiment with softies)
    -1x Purple/green mushroom
    -3x Brownish zoanthid (I had about 6 polyps, but the dark brown crab decided to have a snack this morning when I wasn't looking)

    Now for the pics. These pics were taken with a Sony P&S, so they aren't the best. I've got an EOS Rebel XTI coming in the next couple days. I'm going to skip the gory build pics (unless you really want to see them).
