Okay were do I start. The tank was my old 135 gal that I had a long time ago on here. I tore it down to do 2 tanks. Now I have bought a new House I had room for it in the Garage. Now for the stuff I did for it.

135 gal AGA Tank Drilled with 2 1" holes, wish I had done the drain 1 1/2" though. It works though. Installed the Overflow box with Aquarium Silicone.

Painted the Back of the glass with Black Gloss Acrylic Paint.

The Sump is a Glass EuroFill sump with a hole drilled for a external pump. The external Pump is a One Quite 6000 pump, very nice and Quite. The Sump has A filter Sock on it that After it Cycled I change one a week when I do Water Changes.

The Tank was filled with RO/DI water that I filled with my 50 gal per day RO/DI filter.

For some reason I still get Phosphates in the Water still don't under stand it.

Skimmer right now is a Euro Reef Skimmer for a 90 gal tank but will be using my modified Berlin skimmer that is rated for 250 gals. The Euro Reef 90 gal skimmer seem to be doing a good job I have to clean it out every 3 days, but I know I need a bigger one on there.

Lighting: Is a Hamilton Deluxe Hood with 3 250 watt HQI DE, Supplimented/w 4 96 watt Antinic PC.

I cycled the tank with 135lbs of LR rock that I bought from my shop that work at. I then added about 50 to 60 lbs of my old cured LR from my old tank.

Well my lunar Wrasse Does good with everyone now. He did kill one of my green Chromis right in front of me. and ate him damn him for that. I chased him around with a net and treathen his life, now he is fine and behaves himself now. But technially if he is added last then he will be okay. He doesn't eat my crabs or snail like he did before. He leaves them alone now. Well if you want to know more let me know.

thanks for the Compliment :D
