Havn't shared many pics of the tank here at PSU, so I figured I'd take some after I did a water change this morning.

gorgeous. what are the specs on that tank?
The main tank (this one) measures 96x42x30 ~ 530gal. Lit with four 400w Ushio 14k under Luminarc reflectors, ETSS 1200 skimmer, three CL pumps.
There is also a smaller tank ~150gal with Atlantic/Caribbean stock. I'll try to take some pics of that one too. (It's mostly Gorgonians and bryopsis now though).

is that Sanjays, i mean the tank that Dr Sanjay Joshi's works on?
Its killer, great coral growth
Sanjay is one of the faculty members that oversees things, but the bulk of the work is done by student volunteers like me.
Sanjay's home tank is equally if not more impressive.

Took advantage of having the pumps off while I was doing a water change... Some top-downs from this morning.

gorgeous tank. how long hv u had it again?
Not my tank (wish it was), it's the one here at PSU.
I've been working on it since fall of 2008, but the tank itself is about ten years old.

There doesn't seem to be any major damage to any of the colonies. There are several differnt angels in tank, so if any of them are picking on the corals the corals are growing fast enough to compensate.
