Heres my new one. Set up about 6 weeks ago. (and no, no photoshop!)







Hard to see with the 2D front images, but the wife bought me an underwater camera (yesterday) and I hope to have a bunch of good pics soon!

OK I HAVE to comment on all the recent entries. All great aquascapes!
First off sticknine love the whole two mountain rockwork. You have the prefect places to put a bunch of SPS corals and watch them almost out grow your tank. Assuming you're going the SPS route
scoobaman very well done! love the leathers and the rockwork. Amazing colors with that 20k.
crustman can't wait to see all those corals grow! they're gonna take over. Keep us updated for sure.
Last but not least lounge13 and vegasjay, here's what you guys are gonna do, you're gonna tell me where you live then I'll sneak in at night and steal your nems hehe . No I'm just joking, amazing rock work. Love the rock structure VegasJay. And lounge awesome colors for nem and substrate, the red compliments the black very nicely.

Keep'em comin' guys

I'm using an Aquatinics Solar Flare fixture. Two regular actinics, one Super Actinic, one 10k bulb, and two other bulbs which I have no idea what they are, other than they have a super crisp look to them.

Ah man, all these tanks are making me more and more anxious to start my upgrade! But if I do, I have a feeling I'll end up failing my finals

Thanks Michael. A lot of my colors took a hit in a power outage we had a few weeks ago, but everything should color back up in time. It's definitely nice to have a tank I can sit back and enjoy again.
