Icon6 Palmbeach2210's 90gal Mixed Reef
Well as promised, here are some new pics of my 90gal Reef Tank. I had to re-build the whole tank and re-arrange all the rock about 3 months ago, so some of the corals are babies and I am waiting for them to grow.

Equipment:
90Gal AGA Tank.
Custom LivingColor faux coral impression stand and canopy.
Hang-on OF with 20g euro-style sump w/refuge.
Dual returns with SCWD wave maker powered by a MAG9.5 pump.
AETech ETSS SumpBuddy 40 Skimmer. (I didn't have much room)
Two Little Fishies PhosBan Reactor 150.
Coralife Turbo-Twist UV Sterilizer 3x 9 watt.
ViaAqua 1/3hp Polar Bear Chiller.
2- Hydor Koralia 4.

Lighting:
2- Retrofit MH reflectors w/SE Mogul bases.
2- 250w CoralVue SE 14k Bulbs
1- Dual 250w Electronic Ballast
4- Retrofit 65w Coralife Dual Actinic - 420 460nm Power Compacts and Ballasts.

Fish and Coral:
Starting to lose track. In other words I am too lazy to list them

Let me know what you think.

Thanks and Nope.

One is a Orange Spotted Goby (Amblyeleotris guttata) and the other is a Orangespot Diamond Goby (Valencienna strigata).

I would have never thought these two would share a burrow, but sure enough!

The pics were taken with the metal halides on (I have a cheap camera and by no means a photographer). The lighting I used is listed in the thread. The overflow box was a generic box that came with a sump I bought awhile back. I have thought about adding a CPR overflow, as I hear they are very quiet.
