I haven't posted pics since February. In May, I upgraded from my 80G to a 120G. I got a new stand too. In July, I got a new light and some more rock. Since I'm going to be pulling out the fish soon, I thought I should get some pics posted!

Here's the tank and stand, but I forgot to take out the net that lives in there permanently! The ballast will go under the stand after I have modified it, and sorry for the reflection.

Here's a pic with the refugium.

Here's the whole tank.

And I managed to somehow get a little better focus of just the right side.

It still has a lot of filling in to do, but thanks for looking!

Thanks guys!

Tim, I never liked light wood much either. For some reason, I just couldn't resist this one.

SM, there are actually two FSs together. I have a friend in town who sells frags and I got both of them when they were much smaller. They seem to be pretty happy.

The tank look fantastic Conni. The upgrade looks great. I for one i'm not a fan of clean looking setups, i like my wires tubes and everything showing, but your looks awesome, really like the open top look.

Ray, I guess we find intimacy wherever we can. . .

I placed my order online, but I talked with them when I hooked it up wrong and almost lit it on fire. They were friendly and service oriented, but their turnaround time really stinks. Have you tried emailing them? They seem to always answer my emails, but it takes a day or two.

Thanks for the compliments!
