without a couple of waves you wont truly be able to enjoy smooth sailing
Your tank looks awsome

 

[Katchupoy]

I will play....


Then...

Now..

Well not really true since the pic was last July before my tank crashed and wipe out most of my colonies and old growth. Funny though all of my first coral back in 2003 are still with me....

Amazing tank Katchupoy!

Ill hop in also although ill have to go to the depth of my photo bucket haha

My tank like peppie's made a unfortunate crash to the ground which was upstairs in my house. I have replaced the floor recently lol

Then.. I did a lot of research (on equipment at least) before jumping in the hobby and started by converting this 20 long into an aio.

Now! I am running a 24x24x16 aio rimless made by Oceans By Design running similar filtration ironically.

Fun stuff! Nice tanks everyone! Here is my first. A 10 gallon to get my feet wet and learn. Two clowns, a lawnmower blennie and two peppermint shrimp and porcelain crab. It did great till it sprung a leak and I had to change it to the 20 lol and then again to it's current state a 46 bow.

And here's the 46 taken today

Peppie - your latest tank is looking good. I think the last time I saw pics (haven't been on in awhile) was when it was bare.

Quick shot of my tanks. Started with 29 gallon Dec 2010 and now a 40b that I upgraded to about a year ago. (Starting upgrade to 135 in two weeks!!!!)

I started my very first saltwater tank in May 2008. I started with a standard 55 gal. Later upgraded to a 75 gal and then started setting up more tanks.

This is the 55 when I first set it up.
you see that little Toadstool leather on the left side of the tank?

Here is the 75 as of today. I can not get a good pic of it. It looks soooo much better in person.
That little toadstool leather in the first pic, is the same one in this pic. This has been cut back a couple times.

then here is the 54, 90 & 180

Family says I can't go bigger...so I must cut coral for fish to swim through the reef...fragging time again lol.

 

[Derbird]

I love the idea of the fist to current tank shots

Here is my 75 right after I got it going

And my current 125, pictures taken right before I upgraded the lighting. I'll try to get some new ones.

My very first saltwater tank

And my 180 in Oak Harbor

And the start of the 180 in Arizona

I don't have any pictures of my first tanks I setup, a series of 35's and 55's.
But here is a 90 gallon fish only without live rock.
I built my own wet/dry for this one out of a plywood box, a 5 gallon bucket and a homemade spinning bar. ( no pictures of it)
I think this was around 1990.

This was a 100 gallon acrylic tank with a deep sand bed and my first mh lighting.
I hated the acrylic and the yellow mh bulb.
Didn't have this one long.

This was my 135 I setup in 1990.
Not sure when the picture was taken, maybe around 91.
Not a good picture.

Then this is the last picture I took of my 240 last summer.
