Tank Size: 180 Gallons
Tank Type: Reef
Time Running: 1 Year
Nomination Reason: Cause only 1 other person did and we need some pics in here.

This is what my tank looked like 3 months ago. It doesnt look like this anymore. I dont have any good full tank shots of the tank now.


Here is my favorite fish.
