The start of the 90

[stephish]

I finally got my 90 gallon tank set up and it is now cycling so while being patient I thought I would post a few pictures. The tank is a 90 gallon AGA with a 30 long for the sump/fuge. I've been playing around a bit with the rock so I haven't yet put the canopy on it and of course I need to black out the back of the tank, but yay!

Looks good keep it up and that it a good deal... was it all new?

 

[stephish]

Yeah everything is new, I almost bought a used setup but decided against it as much of the equipment needed either repair or replacing. I decided that patience applied here too so over the last year I've purchased all of the equipment sump, pump, canopy, lights, skimmer etc. and finally 1 month shy of the tanks warranty being up I got it set up. whew!
Now I need to seriously start thinking about the livestock. I have plenty of coral collected up to go in it but I keep changing my mind of fish.

I've moved a few softies in from quarantine and put in the first fish so I thought I would post a few pics.

Nice tank and nice fish!
What happened to painting the back?

 

[stephish]

I was talked out of painting the back black as it "would soon be covered with coralline" but now I have another idea, if it works i'll post pics.
