Don't be too envious if I were you. Bigger tanks have their share of problems. It just takes more of everything. For example, if a coral falls over I have to drag out the ladder, lift the lights, grab my 4 feet long tongs and spend about 5 minutes poking and grunting and still end up with a puddle of water on the floor whereas if you have a small tank you just stick your hand in there and you are done.

Why do you think I had my tank built 96x25x14

WC are not too bad. I have two garbage cans right next to my sump. I siphon the old water into a sink and pump new water right in. It's actually the easy part of my maintenance schedule which is good because I have no excuse to not do water changes.

I say you are way overstocked and should send half your fish to me!

Good looking tank!
