Hi there guys, i'm new to the site and wanted to share my tank. I still need about 20 more LBS or liverock that i'm going to build up the right side with. I'm going for a valley effect in the middle. I just got this tank up and running and all the liverock, corals, a couple fish and livesand from the old 10 gal went into this tank. I just picked up about 12lbs of liverock a couple days ago and thats why the left side is built up. Right now i'm having an ich breakout so buying more corals, rock ect is put on hold. I'm also going to be buying a new skimmer, the new coralife one, because mine puts out millions and millions of bubbles. I'm getting rid of the 2 chromis and the clown tomarrow becausei want a maroon clown insted. Here are the pics.

i wouldn't say i'm too experanced lol I have been in the hobby for about 3 years. I just started again though because i moved. I also have a sump/refugium plumbed into the system, the total system is about 40 gal and the tanks is only 25 gal, but it looks alot bigger. This is my first "reef" tank and i only have 4 corals, 1 pipe organ, 1 candy cane coral, 1 pulsing xenia and a sun coral. :D The tank will be mostly SPS when i get done with it. The lights over it are coralife pro 280watt 1x150 10,000k HQI HM, 2x65watt acintic, 2x1watt moon lights. I'm planning on changing the the 150watt MH to a 250watt as soon as i get a new ballast for it.

no. i had it custom ordered by my LFS. Not many people have this tank, thats why i liked it. It's 20" tall by 24" long by 12" deep It looks way bigger than it actually is.

Welcome to the board, your tank looks great!!! I'm looking for a new tank to transfer all my corals from my 55reef to a 90 or a 110 gallon tank. But so far my tank looks great, just want a bigger one!!! :happyfish

I had my LFS speical order it for me, not custom build it or anyhting. It's AGA and the LFS doesn't normally get them in. I payed $120 for the tank and stand, not too bad :D My lights were what broke my bank though lol :hilarious

It's a 25 gallon thats 20" in high. It's not really concidered a "high" tank, because it's the only standard 25 gal they make. the total system with the sump/refugium is 40 gal.
