BEAUTIFUL...I hope one day for my tank to look even a little bit like that...Can I ask you this....What did you use to get the corals to stay in place? Nothing seems to hold for me.

Meowzer-trust me if i can get my tank to look like that so can you,to hold corals in place,the small frags,i use super glue gel,for other sizes i use epoxy,cant remeber the name right now,when i get home i can look it up for you.

All I can say is yours took 5 years to look better than what God did in 1 day. He must be jealous. I know one day when my tank grows up it can only hope it looks as good as yours.
Awesome tank. I wonder if you could some how compete that tank. You definately got the Blue Ribbon.
Keep up the Awesome work.

I would really appreciate it if you could send me your updates on how you did this. not future updates, but in how you got your tank to look like this. I currently have a 125g with a fair amount of fish and LR and some SPS, but I would like to know how you went from what I have to what you have now(short of spending a couple grand on SPS and coral, those costs I can figure out). I have a 30 gal tank for pre-mix, but no fuge tank, but have the skimmer, canister filter, UV filter, and 4 powerheads for circulation. have built in RO unit in kitchen sink for the water, use Instant Ocean for salt. I have T-5 lights, and no additives for the water other than 30g water changes weekly. Thanks,

P.S. do you have that insured? I would look into that if you dont, cause that things gotta be worth serious $$$$ not just monetary but blood sweat and tears!.
