Yep....
I plan on keeping all types of photosynthic corals. I'm really ready to get some sps, but I have to wait awhile. I'll definatley show more pictures whenever I add some stuff.

It's a 25 gallon(24"x12x16").....
Plan on keeping anything that can live under the light.
In about 1 week I'll add about 10 lbs of lr.

 

[dfishh]

Tank is still cycling. I pan on adding about 35-40 lbs total, but for now I'm adding gradually.

Just a little FYI, your tank is actually 20 gallons, not 25.

JustinTX,
I believe I know what I'm talking about. A 20 is 12" high while a 25 is 16" high. It may be 20" high. Not sure. Go to AGA's stie to see.

seems good, thats wat i do with my rock cuz i dont have enough money to order large amounts all at once. its a lot easier if u order it all while ur cycling tho, but it doesnt matter really. also, dont put large amounts of lr in the tank wen theres fish in it, do it little at a time, cuz the dieoff could cause an amonia spike, or u can cure it first

I know he wasnt being mean. I happened to make a mistake on the height of the tank being 16", but when I measured it, it was 20". Again sorry for the mistake. But still, it's close to a 20 gallon in lenght and width, just 4" higher.

Sorry if i came of bad, i wasnt trying to be mean or anything. it was just that the first dimensions that you posted matched my tank exactly. thats all.
