I believe the longest running reef tank was set up by a guy that goes by the name Jesus.... From what I hear he's done a pretty good job.

mine is a 145g running for 8 years.....
Have a DAS setup and it sprung a leak...had to load EVERYTHING into 3 55 gallon plastic drums.....and quickly!
Tank couldn't be fixed...ordered a new one....got the run around for FIVE MONTHS! Lost the few fish I had, some inverts and a few corals but everything else lived for 5 months in those barrels!!
Just got the new tank set back up 3 weeks ago.....
What a pain all that was!!
:mad:

Had FOWLR for 3 years and have been converting it to a reef. Had to scramble and almost start over when I used crappy, non-aquarium silicon. It almost killed everything. So I'm now in the process of letting everything stabilize so that I can slowly start building a reef.

I'm with you cliffrouse11bas... I'd like to see some pictures of tanks established more than 3 or 4 years. If you ever see Golfish online, he has some pics of his old tank that was set up for years.... it was fabulous! Does anyone else have some seasoned tanks???
DJ :D
