90 gallon pics
here is my setup for my new 90 gallon acrylic tank. live rock has been in it for about a week and a half and the dry rock has been in there for about two weeks. salinity is at 1.024 at the moment and i have not yet checked the parameters but will start as soon as the test kit i ordered arrived. any thoughts on the setup or placement of the rocks? i made sure there was ample room against all the glass so debris does not get trapped.

depends on my water parameters. will check in a few days. i would estimate clean up crew in a few weeks and then start slowly with a fish several weeks later.

I'd love to have everything plumbed into a closet. Looking good so far!

Looking good! It reminds me of when I started up my 90 gallon. The tank looks the same, as well as the amount of rock. BTW, your house is gorgeous! Did you create the nook just for the tank?
